AFC Bournemouth form and stats

AFC Bournemouth are yet to lose a point on their Championship travels this season with 2 wins from 2 away games.

There might be some fixture complaints from AFC Bournemouth as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Carabao Cup match against Norwich City (0-6). The attacker Morgan Rogers got a match rating of 6.85 in that game. Rogers dribled passed the opponent 2 of 4 times and had 19 successful passes (of 21 total). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Norwich City was particularly ugly (0-6). The humiliation is still top of mind. Bournemouth goalkeeper Ørjan Nyland had a great day against Norwich City, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Blackpool in the Championship.

4 goals so far away for AFC Bournemouth, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head
