Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction

The Cherries scored two goals in their campaign opener and will look to continue that form in their first home game of the season. They have suffered just one loss in their last four Premier League home games. Notably, they are winless in their five home games in the league against Wolves, suffering three defeats.

Lewis Cook remains sidelined with an injury picked up in the preseason, while Enes Unal is also a confirmed absentee. Ryan Christie and Justin Kluivert are not yet fit for matchday action.

The Wolves suffered a big defeat in their campaign opener, extending their winless streak in the league to five games. They have conceded five goals apiece in their last two away games while scoring just twice. They have lost four of their last six meetings against the hosts.

Fabio Silva is on his way out of the club and is unlikely to feature here. Leon Chiwome misses this match due to an injury.
