Sutton's predictions: Bournemouth v Arsenal

I covered Bournemouth's 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Tuesday and the Cherries really impressed me.

Andoni Iraola's side have gone 10 games without a win, but they have drawn four of their past five matches and they carried a real threat against the Blues.

Their goals came from a couple of long throws but they did look dangerous in open play and, with the way Iraola plays, this is not going to be easy for Arsenal.

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta will know that already after Bournemouth did the double over his side last season, but he and his players must be full of confidence after the way they dispatched Aston Villa last time out.

To beat Villa was a huge result and their performance to go with it was Arsenal really flexing their muscles.

It said to everyone "we are the team to beat" and you can't back against them following it up by beating Bournemouth as well.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2
