Bournemouth vs. Manchester City lineups, odds, prediction: Where to watch Premier League, live stream, pick

Manchester City will attempt to remain top of the Premier League pile when they Travel to Bournemouth on Saturday. The pair meet at Vitality Stadium where Phil Foden secured a 1-0 win earlier this year. The Cherries are facing a third straight Game against one of last season's top four and have never beaten this weekend's visitors in their History.

Andoni Iraola's men have drawn two and lost 18 of their all-time meetings with City which is the most that one English side has faced another without winning. Bournemouth fare poorly against teams top of the EPL table with a 100% losing streak although they have picked up seven of their 11 points so far when playing at home. Two of those wins should give the hosts something to fight for against a vulnerable City.

Despite losing to Tottenham Hotspur in the EFL Cup in midweek, their 32-Game EPL unbeaten run is still going and they are the only topflight side without a loss this campaign. Pep Guardiola's men are one point clear of Liverpool after seven wins and two draws from nine which is also five points better than Arsenal.
