Arsenal FC have been a lot better at home this season than away, and their midweek opponent, AFC Bournemouth, has displayed very poor road form this season. So you can kind of see where our projection for this fixture is going. Last season, the north London side crushed the Cherries 3-0 at home, and one could expect a result similar to that scoreline on Wednesday night.
The south coast club is injury riddled right now, and it appears that they are catching the Gunners at the wrong time right now.
