AFC Bournemouth desperately need points on Saturday, Apr 17 at 4:00 PM in the Premier League. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Everton come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). AFC Bournemouth travel out of form (0W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Everton won their last outing, while AFC Bournemouth suffered defeat — home advantage backed by momentum.

Despite playing at home, Everton face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. AFC Bournemouth have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Everton a slight edge, but AFC Bournemouth are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
