'I think': Troy Deeney has just predicted the result of Arsenal vs Bournemouth
04/05/2024 10:15
Arsenal face Bournemouth on Saturday in what could be a pretty tricky fixture for the Gunners.
Arsenal have, of course, been in red hot form, but the same can be said of Bournemouth.
Indeed, the Cherries have been on a fantastic run of their own, and they are exactly the type of team that could cause an upset here.
Speaking on his TikTok page, Troy Deeney has had a go at predicting how this game will turn out.
Troy Deeney predicts Arsenal vs Bournemouth
Bournemouth may be in great form, but Deeney isn't giving them any hope here against Arsenal as he's tipped the Gunners to run away as 4-1 winners in this game.
"Arsenal, Arsenal beat Bournemouth. I think Bournemouth are the type of team that Arsenal like to play. A team that plays football and attacks. I think Arsenal win 4-1.
Arsenal need to be wary
Deeney is predicting an easy Arsenal win here, but we wouldn't be so sure.
Bournemouth can be a tricky side to play against, and while their style is a good match for Arsenal, if the Cherries are on their A-game, they may be able to bloody a few noses at the Emirates here.
Of course, if Arsenal turn up, this could be a one-sided affair, but as games against West Ham and Fulham this season have shown, Arsenal can have these matches where they underestimate an opposition or just simply don't turn up.
Mikel Arteta needs to make sure every single one of his players are 100% focused for this match.
Arsenal have the luxury of playing early this weekend, and a win here would pile the pressure on Manchester City to get a result against Wolves later in the day in what is a very tricky game for Pep Guardiola's side.
