Premier League Tottenham vs Bournemouth

At 22:00 on August 30, Tottenham will play against Bournemouth at home in the third round of the Premier League. The following is an analysis of this game:

Recent performance

Tottenham: The season started in an excellent state, achieved two consecutive victories and scored their opponents in two consecutive games, defeated Burnley 3-0 at home, and narrowly defeated Brighton 2-1 away from home in the second round.

Bornemouth: The start of the season was unstable, losing to Liverpool 2-4 away in the first round, and sealing Wolves 1-0 at home in the second round.

Linear situation

Tottenham: Currently, many players are absent due to injuries, and the main players Dragusin, Kulusevsky and Madison are unable to play. However, the team introduced Argentine striker Julian Alvarez and Croatian midfielder Luca Modric, retaining core players such as Son Heung-min and Kane, and the lineup depth is still firmly in the upper level of the Premier League.

Bornemouth: Currently, only rotation player Yu Naal missed the game due to injury, and the overall impact is not great. In the summer window, England goalkeeper Mark Travers and Brazilian full-back Igor Junior were introduced, retaining the core counterattack system of last season.

Tactical Style

Tottenham: Usually adopts 4-2-3-1 tactics, emphasizing ball control and high-pressure pressing. The double midfielder is responsible for cutting off the opponent's counterattack line and leading the offensive rhythm. The front midfielder Modric is the core of the offensive, the "trident" in the frontcourt is closely linked, the full-back is pressing on the offense, and the set piece tactics are also extremely threatening.

Bornemouth: Focusing on 5-4-1 defensive counterattack tactics, low post contraction is adopted when defending, 5 defenders shrink to the front of the penalty area, and 4 midfielders form a double-layer interception net. When counterattacking, relying on Solank's speed breakthrough and center Carwater Lewin's back to make the ball, the full-back will assist the full-back to limit the opponent's breakthrough on the wing.

Data and other aspects: In the last 10 Premier League matches between the two teams, Tottenham has an advantage with 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, and has maintained a high winning rate against Bournemouth at home.

Overall, Tottenham Hotspur welcomed two consecutive victories this season. During this period, 5 goals were scored in total and the defensive end was at the same time. It can be seen that Tomás França's transformation of the team was quite successful. Tottenham Hotspur, who was in good shape, had no reason to win at home.

Twente: 1 win and 2 losses in the new season, scored 2 goals and conceded 4 goals, temporarily ranked 11th in the standings. In the last round of the league, Twente defeated Helenfin 2-1.

Linear situation

SBV Elite: The lineup may not change much. On the back line, the central defender combination of Hendrix and Van Gassel may continue to start, but they have certain disadvantages in defending high-altitude balls.

Twente: The lineup is relatively neat and there are no major injuries. The main goalkeeper may continue to start, and players such as Sandre Skogan will shoulder the heavy responsibility of defense on the back line.

Tactical Style

SBV Elite: Usually adopts a 5-3-2 formation, focusing on defensive counterattacks, relying on wingbacks to assist, relying on set pieces on the offensive end, and the offensive end is relatively dependent on set pieces tactics, and the offense is weak, with only 0.5 goals per game.

Twente: Good at balancing formations with 4-3-3, focusing on midfield pressing and fast counterattacks, the front line and midfield cooperate tacitly, the offensive firepower is distributed evenly, but the offensive stability is insufficient, and there are not many ways to face intensive defense.

data and other aspects
