Can Keith Andrews extend unbeaten streak against Bournemouth to 10 games?

Vitality Stadium in Dorset gears up to host the Matchweek 29 fixture of the English Premier League, featuring the home side Bournemouth and Brentford.

The Dorset outfit find themselves placed 10th in the EPL points table and are unbeaten in the last five games. They are coming after a 1-1 draw against Sunderland in their most recent fixture. They are led by Andoni Iraola, who has led teams like Rayo Vallecano previously.

Pushing harder for the top five spots, Brentford are placed seventh and are coming after a 4-3 win over Burnley in the last game. They are led by Keith Andrews, who took over the reins after Thomas Frank headed to North London. In his maiden season, Andrews has done a brilliant job so far.
