THE PREDICTION
Both these sides come into this match off the back of fantastic victories at the weekend. Bristol City made the short trip to South Wales and shocked high-flying Swansea, beating them 1-3. Bournemouth secured a hard-fought 1-0 win at home to Watford and sees them currently sitting inside the top six by a very narrow margin. Bournemouth desperately need the three points here to ensure they remain inside the playoff places. However, this will prove difficult against a rejuvenated Bristol City side under new boss Nigel Pearson. The fabled new manager bounce certainly seems to have taken effect and may do so again here, with a long midweek trip like this a tough prospect for Bournemouth. With that in mind, the hosts draw no bet should be favoured.
