The model's likeliest scoreline. Exact-score markets pay well and land rarely, so stake lightly.
How do the two teams set up?
Confirmed line-ups land about an hour before kick-off.
Home
AFC Bournemouth
Expect Bournemouth to stay compact at Vitality Stadium and look for a moment rather than control the game.
Away
Manchester United
Man Utd combine structure with enough quality in the final third to punish mistakes on their trip to Vitality Stadium. Midfield control is their foundation.
What would change our mind?
The developments we would react to before kick-off.
If Man Utd name a weakened XI
Rotation or a key absence would take several points off their win chance; check line-ups an hour before kick-off.
If Bournemouth score first
The favourite has to chase, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.
If a red card comes in the first hour
Ten men changes the expected-goals picture entirely, whichever side it hits.
The story of Bournemouth vs Man Utd
AFC Bournemouth take on Manchester United in front of their own fans, and the Wazir Win numbers lean Man Utd's way. The gap in expected goals (1.29 for Bournemouth, 1.33 for Man Utd) is the clearest signal, and it is what produces our 38% for Man Utd. Bournemouth's best route is to keep it level into the last half-hour, when the draw becomes a live result.
