Bournemouth have lost six of their seven Premier League meetings with Spurs (D1), netting just two goals in those matches and yet Bournemouth are only @3/1 to win this.
For a side that only has Burnley, Brighton and Saints sparing them from a relegation scrap – hosting third placed Champions League semi finalists – the price ought to be in double digits.
Clucking great clues are in goal-scorer markets. Tottenham’s available ‘strikers’ are @6/4 …as is Bournemouth’s star man, Callum Wilson.
Eriksen and Dele are out @5/2 which only reinforces the absence of trust.
All of this despite some desperate form from the Seasiders. Just the single win and that was against our pals Brighton. We eventually put one past them – whereas Bad News Brighton pounded Chris Hughton’s tough nuts by five goals to nil.
Can Spurs’ defy not just the odds, but the reality of our situation?
The somewhat churlish answer is that we have no choice. We MUST. We MUST prevail, but can we?
Jesus wept, we’ve Ajax again on the 8th. This feels a lot like rearranging deckchairs on the Titanic.
And the bands played on.
We need one win out of the last two games and I don’t feel confident about either.A couple of weeks ago it looked so simple with four home matches out of the last six games.Our current form is not comforting and a resurgent Everton last up.It would be squeaky bum time for Levy if he knew anything about football.
I hope not but we could very well get turned over this weekend, i would not bet against it.
We’ve a better chance than liverpuddle of reaching the final ,but only just. Bournemouth will be tough; we’re spent.
Go on the Collapsed Inflatables!
