Bournemouth vs Crystal Palace: Premier League preview

Standing in Iraola's way is a slippery quartet of opponents that begins with the Eagles today, but the Cherries are on fire. They're on the Premier League's longest unbeaten run at 14 matches and their last league defeat was against Arsenal in their very first match of the calendar year.

Bournemouth are unbeaten in their last five meetings with Palace, drawing the last three. This season's reverse fixture was the only one of those five in which Palace scored and they needed to score three goals to pick up the point. They were 2-0 down at Selhurst Park and Jean-Philippe Mateta's hat-trick in the second half saved the day.

The Eagles' European exploits have made 2025-26 a season to remember, yet they could very well end the season in 12th place as if it has some sort of gravitational pull. Oliver Glasner's imminent departure has added to the memorability and he will likely rest some of his usual starters ahead of their second leg against Shakhtar Donetsk on Thursday.

Palace have won seven league matches on the road this season compared to just four at home. They're among the lowest scorers in the division but have conceded fewer than everyone but Arsenal and Manchester City, which reflects well on them in some aspects but doesn't say much for their entertainment value.

Statistically, their chances tend to have high expected goals value – the third-highest in the Premier League this season – but have a lower conversation rate for their shots on target than every other team but Wolves.

Indeed, excluding Palace's seven penalties they have the division's biggest shortfall between expected goals and actual ones, which might be illustrated by one of the stylistic curiosities that could be in evidence on the turf today.

According to Opta data, Palace and Bournemouth have attempted the same number of fast breaks in the Premier League this season. Bournemouth have scored from eight of them, Palace none. They're the only team not to do it.
