Preview + Form

A tough matchup, but one has to back City given the derby perfromance, a 3-0 drubbing of United.

For the Cherries, a win in the PL and a midweek loss in the EFL cup, give them some hope to compete here.

The key battle will be the forwards vs an aging Cherry backline. One ahs to wonder if this could be a classic City one sided affair.

Which team will come out in front?

Team News

City’s side have Kevin De Bruyne out.

The Cherries have Marcondes, Neto, Fredericks, Adams and Cook all doubtful or suspended.

Prediction

Manchester City 3-0 Bournemouth
