Arsenal v Bournemouth – Premier League 2025/26

 

Arsenal vs Bournemouth is a relatively modern fixture, but one that has grown in stature due to Bournemouth’s competitive rise and Arsenal’s push to return to the summit of English football. The clubs first met in the Premier League in 2015, and while Arsenal won the majority of early encounters, recent matches have become far less predictable.

 

The contrast in club profiles is clear, Arsenal, with 13 top-flight titles and regular Champions League football, represent established Premier League pedigree. Bournemouth, by contrast, are one of the league’s smaller clubs but have consistently punched above their weight since rejoining the top flight. Their high-energy style under Andoni Iraola and ability to disrupt more possession-based teams has given this fixture added tension.

 

In the 2024/25 season, Arsenal finished second, while Bournemouth achieved a club-best ninth. Their 2–1 win at the Emirates on 3 May 2025 marked their first away victory over Arsenal and dealt a late blow to the Gunners’ title push. With Arsenal targeting the title in 2025/26 and Bournemouth eyeing European qualification, this fixture has become more relevant, especially as Bournemouth continue to grow into a top-half Premier League side.
