Bournemouth is on a record 14-match unbeaten run in the Premier League as they face Crystal Palace on May 3, 2026, at Vitality Stadium. Bournemouth aims to solidify their position while Palace struggles following a recent loss.

Bournemouth currently sits in 8th place with 49 points. They drew 2-2 against Leeds United in their last match. Bournemouth has not lost in their last five meetings with Crystal Palace, drawing the last three. Their last league defeat was against Arsenal earlier this year.

In contrast, Crystal Palace is in 14th place with 43 points. They lost 3-1 to Liverpool in their previous game. This loss has put additional pressure on manager Oliver Glasner as the team seeks to regain form.

• Bournemouth’s points: 49
• Unbeaten matches for Bournemouth: 14
