Bournemouth to secure a top-six finish in 2026/27: Outright odds and predictions
With the change in the dugout and having to get to grips with the added rigours of continental competition, a slight drop-off domestically is to be expected from Bournemouth in 2026/27.
Nonetheless, they’re a side who routinely punch above their weight, and no one would be shocked if they replicated their feat from last term.
The Cherries are priced at 6/1 with LiveScore Bet to finish in the top six.
Bournemouth to secure a top-five finish in 2026/27: Outright odds and predictions
Could Bournemouth go one better and potentially seal Champions League qualification?
Fifth place has been enough to do so in each of the last two Premier League campaigns (though that won’t be determined until later in the season as it’s based on English clubs’ European performance).
Bournemouth’s opening Premier League fixture of 2026/27: Odds and predictions
Bournemouth open up with a tough-looking trip to Manchester City (Sunday 23rd August, 2pm BST).
The Cherries’ Premier League record against Man City doesn’t make for promising reading: they’ve lost 16 of their 18 encounters – though they did hold them to a title race-ending 1-1 draw back in May.
However, Bournemouth have yet to pick up so much as a point at the Etihad Stadium, and Man City are understandably odds-on favourites for this clash.
LiveScore Bet has Bournemouth at 5/1 to win, with Man City at 2/5 and odds of 7/2 on a draw.
