Personal analysis: Manchester City currently has certain problems on both offense and defense. Haaland's scoring efficiency in front of the goal against strong teams has always been relatively low, and Malmush's ability to seize opportunities in front of the goal is still a little bit lacking. Savinho is a plug-and-play player in the winger position. He quickly proved his breakthrough and ball distribution ability after arriving in Manchester City. This player is relatively successful for Manchester City's signings. Grealish, Gundogan, and De Bruyne in the midfield have all seen a decline in speed and shooting ability. At the end of this season, they are likely to leave the team. The team's current defensive lineup is thick enough, but the positions of several players on the field are not very reasonable. Akanji's performance as a full-back is not good. Secondly, the young player Husanov made many mistakes in the previous games. Manchester City's current central defender position is relatively strong. Bournemouth's offensive method on the field is a bit rigid, and it is more advantageous when encountering a team that mainly plays positional warfare. Kluivert, who is in the front midfield position, is the main core of the team's offense. His ability to hold the ball and organize offense is relatively good. Tavernier and Semenio, who are in the wing position, cannot be said to be weak in strength. It can only be said that they are not so spiritual in playing on the field, and their individual one-on-one breakthrough ability is relatively average. The team has made many adjustments to the backfield lineup in the past few rounds of games. The team itself has done a good job in positional defense. Relatively speaking, the speed of assisting defense and retreating in mobile warfare will be slightly weaker.

Manchester City is much stronger than Bournemouth in overall strength, but Manchester City's ability to convert offensive momentum into goals is relatively average, while Bournemouth's counterattack speed and quality are relatively average. The team is better at playing stalemate games, but Manchester City's middle area defense ability is relatively good. Once the rhythm on the field slows down, it is likely that both teams will have no way to deal with each other. At present, in terms of league points, Manchester City is only one point behind Villa, Chelsea, and Newcastle with one round less. Manchester City only needs to win the last two rounds to enter the Champions League qualification zone. In this game, Manchester City's home game handicap of 1.25 goals is a bit high. It can be seen that the organization has given Manchester City a relatively large support. Lao Li believes that it is hard to say whether Manchester City can play through this game, but it is not a problem to win at home. Friends who seek stability still recommend choosing the home win direction, and the score is expected to be 3-0 or 3-1.
