Best Tip: Bournemouth to win

As the stadium fills and the Bournemouth players prepare themselves for this match, the bookies have predicted a victory for them. The odds and our pre-match stats below point in that direction too, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) data we use in our predictive algorithms. The Vitality Stadium hasn't been an easy place to go for Sturm Graz in the past, and we expect more of the same come Thursday night. A win / draw / win home win is our tip.
