Team shape
How will the two teams set up?
Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.
At home
AFC Bournemouth
Bournemouth are likely to sit in a compact shape at Vitality Stadium and wait for a single opening rather than chase control.
Away
Fulham
Fulham are a pragmatic mid-table team: sturdy out of possession on the road at Vitality Stadium, but short of the creativity to dictate a game.
What could change
What would change the King Exchange prediction?
Team news and match events that would move our numbers.
If Bournemouth field a weakened XI
Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.
If Fulham score first
The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.
If a red card arrives in the first hour
Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
The long read
Bournemouth vs Fulham match preview
AFC Bournemouth welcome Fulham in front of a home crowd, and the King Exchange numbers tilt toward Bournemouth. The expected-goals split (2.17 for Bournemouth, 0.75 for Fulham) is the strongest signal, and it drives our 69% for Bournemouth. Fulham's best hope is to keep it level going into the final 30 minutes, when a draw becomes very live.
