Manchester City squeezed past Bournemouth 2-1 away from home. It was 1-0 at half-time, meaning the result turned around in the second half.

On the day, Bournemouth had 36% of the ball to Manchester City's 64%, shots finished 5-17, expected goals 1.67 to 3.43 — an xG gap that size says the one-goal margin undersold Manchester City's control.

Coming into the game, across their last 6 meetings in our records, Manchester City led the recent series with 5 wins. Those games averaged 0.83 goals for Bournemouth and 3.00 for Manchester City.
