With two cups already in the trophy cabinet this term, Manchester City turn their attention back to the Premier League title race when visiting Bournemouth .
However, the Cherries also have plenty to play for here, as they are still chasing a surprise Champions League spot after going 16 games unbeaten in this competition.
Each team really needs to go for a win, so we like 21/20 for both sides to score and no draw as our initial Bournemouth vs Man City prediction.

Head-To-Head
Bournemouth vs Man City Head-To-Head Record
City have predictably dominated this match-up since Bournemouth gained promotion a few years ago, with the Blues making it seven wins out of eight in all competitions when prevailing 3-1 at Etihad Stadium in early November.
On the plus side for the Cherries , they did claim a 2-1 home victory in the Premier League last season and have at least scored in six of the last seven meetings.

Andoni Iraola has already declared an intention to leave Bournemouth at the end of the season, but seems determined to go out with a bang. The Cherries have only dropped two points from their last five league matches after beating Crystal Palace 3-0 at Vitality Stadium before a 1-0 victory at Fulham .
"I hope we can keep this mentality until the end," said Iraola. "When you are pushing for Europe, the teams around you win a lot of games. We've left some opponents behind, but we still need more points. "We are in a good place, but we play City, and we play Forest away. We have to find points from somewhere."
Brazilian teenager Rayan has been a big hit since joining for £24.7million in January, and 5/2 for him to score in a fourth straight match will feature in a lot of Bournemouth vs Man City tips.
Man City Form Guide
Saturday's 1-0 FA Cup final triumph over Chelsea made it nine wins out of 10 for City, with that hot streak having started with a 2-0 defeat of Arsenal in the Carabao Cup decider. Antoine Semenyo has now struck 10 times for each of these teams this term after his sublime flick settled the issue at Wembley and is 11/2 to open the scoring here, just as he did in a Bournemouth shirt in the corresponding fixture last season.
"It's going to be tough," said Semenyo. "They're fighting for Europe. They're going to make it tough for us. I still speak to them every day, to be honest. It'll be good to see them all." A 3-3 draw at Everton earlier this month may yet prove pivotal in the title race, but the Blues put that setback behind them to beat Brentford and Crystal Palace 3-0. Pep Guardiola believes his side can gain energy from picking up yet another trophy as they seek to overcome the fatigue factor and difficult opponents.
"It's not the best opponent for us after a game like Saturday, but the cards are on the table," said the Spanish supremo. "We know exactly what we have to do, and we will try it. "We try to extend (the title race). The only chance we have is to win the game and try to arrive in the last game against Villa with a chance." Refereeing and VAR decisions have played a huge part in what has been a thrilling end to the Premier League campaign, so 15/8 for a penalty to be awarded at Vitality Stadium is tempting.
