Bournemouth v Crystal Palace
Tuesday 2 April
19:45 kick-off
It's 13th versus 14th in the Premier League table on Tuesday night with Bournemouth v Crystal Palace not exactly a game general fans will have marked on their calendar - but it'll do just nicely for us.
The Cherries are 19/201.95 to make it three wins in a row as they host a Palace side without an away win in the league since the start of November - and I think they're a good bet for that.
But it's the fouls market that stands out here, as Bournemouth have given away the most fouls this season 385 while Palace are fourth on 352 - and have a man who's the most fouled per game in the league.
Leg 1: Jordan Ayew 2+ fouls
The Palace forward has given away 53 fouls in all competitions this season, and with Bournemouth's stats being what they are then there'll be a bit of a scrap ensuing in this one.
Ayew has given away multiple fouls in 18 games so far this season, and is 8/111.73 for another 2+ foul performance at the Vitality.
English Premier League - Top 5 Fouls Won
| Player | Team | Apps | Fouls Won | Fouls Won/90* |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elliot Anderson | Nottm Forest | 38 | 80 | 2.2 |
| Bruno Guimarães | Newcastle | 29 | 75 | 2.7 |
| Crysencio Summerville | West Ham | 31 | 67 | 2.4 |
| Jérémy Doku | Man City | 30 | 61 | 3.1 |
| Alex Scott | Bournemouth | 37 | 60 | 1.9 |
Leg 2: Jordan Ayew fouled 3+ times
That's not his party piece though, as if he's good at giving away fouls, he's great at winning them - with nobody getting fouled more per 90 minutes this season than the Ghanaian.
He's just 1/21.50 to be fouled 3+ times by Bournemouth, but he's drawn three or more fouls in a whopping 21 games this season.
The Ayew double of 2+ fouls given away and 3+ fouls earned works out at about 8/52.60 - but has landed in 14 games this season - including the reverse fixture against Bournemouth in December.
Leg 3: Lewis Cook 2+ fouls
Lewis Cook is 13/82.63 for 2+ fouls on Tuesday - which is something he's managed in 10 games already in this campaign.
So given the opposition it's a great opportunity for him to add another multiple foul game as he'll come up against Ayew and and also a Palace outfit in general who like to get stuck in foul-wise.
