Manchester City played in the early morning: 9 consecutive kills at home! Winning = entering the top 3 of the Premier League, Prince Edward 200 games

At 0:30 in the morning on November 3, in the 10th round of the Premier League, Manchester City faced Bournemouth at home. In the last eight Premier League home games against Bournemouth, Manchester City has won them all. If they win, Manchester City will rank among the top three in the Premier League; Foden will usher in his 200th game in the Premier League and will become the youngest player in the history of Manchester City to reach 200 Premier League games. Haaland, who only scored 1 goal in 6 Premier League games against the Cherries, is looking forward to breaking the ball drought.

[Confrontation History]

The two teams have met 20 times, with Manchester City having an absolute advantage with 18 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. In the 2024-25 Premier League season, Manchester City lost 1-2 away from home and won 3-1 at home. In the FA Cup in March, Manchester City won 2-1.

[Aiming for 9 consecutive home wins, Manchester City will enter the top 3 if they win]

This season’s Premier League situation is still chaotic. Liverpool started with 5 consecutive wins and then lost 4 consecutive games. In the 10th round, they defeated Villa 2-0 and scored 18 points in 10 games. Arsenal played steadily and ranked first with 25 points in 10 games. Manchester City currently ranks 8th with 16 points after 9 games. Bournemouth ranks second with 18 points from 9 games.

For Guardiola's Manchester City, if they defeat Bournemouth in this game and score 19 points in 10 games, they will rank among the top three in the Premier League rankings. In the last round of the Premier League, Manchester City lost 0-1 to Villa. This defeat made Guardiola very dissatisfied. Facing Bournemouth at home, Manchester City is aiming for 3 points - in the history of the Premier League, Manchester City has played against the Cherries at home 8 times, and the record is a complete victory.

[Foden will celebrate his 200th Premier League game]

The 25-year-old "Prince" Foden has played for Manchester City (including youth training) for 16 years, 8 of which were in the first team. In the past 8 years, Foden has played 199 times in the Premier League, contributed 62 goals and 28 assists, and won 6 Premier League championship trophies. Against Bournemouth, Foden is about to usher in the 200th game of his Premier League career, becoming the 15th player in Manchester City's history to reach 200 Premier League games. At 25 years and 158 days old, Foden is the youngest player to reach 200 Premier League games in Manchester City.

[The Cherries only scored 1 goal in 6 Premier League games. Haaland is looking forward to breaking the ball shortage]

Haaland is Manchester City's killer. He has scored 11 goals in the Premier League this season. However, Majin Buu was not very efficient in scoring against Bournemouth. Since the 2022-23 season, Haaland has faced the Cherries 6 times in the Premier League, scoring only 1 goal in a total of 439 minutes of playing time. In the last four Premier League games against Bournemouth, Haaland has suffered zero shutouts. Facing Petrovich, Senesi and Diakite on Bournemouth's defense, can Haaland break the ball shortage?
