00:00 Manchester City's next Premier League game, the game we mentioned, Bournemouth away, Saturday
00:08 evening kick-off. These are the type of places you've got to go and dig in. It's almost a
00:13 case of at these lower teams, grounds away from home, you've got to then show your quality.
00:22 Maybe they did that against Brentford with Phil Foden's hat-trick, but it's games like
00:26 that and in moments like that that can really, really put the title race in your favour.
00:31 Yes, I know what you mean. They're the banana skin games, aren't they, going away to a difficult
00:36 side away from home. I still think City are going to find this one relatively comfortable.
00:42 They love playing Bournemouth. They have never lost to Bournemouth in their history. Since
00:47 Bournemouth came up in, what was it, 2015, they've won every single game they've played
00:52 against them. A couple of cup games in there as well. I'd be surprised. That record's got
00:58 to break one day, doesn't it? But I'd be surprised if it's this weekend. Bournemouth are not
01:03 in good form. I don't think they've won in the league since Boxing Day. They have then
01:07 slowly done the decline a little bit. I don't think they'll be dragged into relegation zone.
01:11 I think there's enough of a gap there anyway. But certainly, I think that City will go there
01:18 pretty confidently and, as we touched on, in a good run of form. Not maybe playing at
01:23 their best, but I wouldn't be surprised if they come away with a relatively comfortable
01:28 2-3 no-win. Actually, Bournemouth this season was one of the rare big victories. City haven't
01:35 had many 4, 5, 6 goal holes this season, which is unlike Guadalajara's side. But they did
01:42 against Bournemouth in the reverse fixture. They won 6-1 at the Addy Hut. So I think of
01:47 all the weeks for a potential upset this isn't the one I think it'd be a
01:49 relatively comfortable City victory.
