Bournemouth Vs Leicester Premier League 2025

BOURNEMOUTH, England – AFC Bournemouth will clash with Leicester City on Sunday, May 25, 2025, in their final Premier League match of the season. The game will take place at the Vitality Stadium, as both teams look to end their season on a high note.

Bournemouth enters the match in 11th place, while Leicester City sits in 18th and has already secured relegation to the Championship for next season. Leicester’s journey back to the Premier League is uncertain, given ongoing points deduction discussions.

Despite struggling recently, Bournemouth hopes to capitalize on Leicester’s fading defense. Leicester has allowed 31 goals from open play this season, the highest in the league, while Bournemouth has averaged a solid performance at home.

The Cherries will be without Lewis Cook, who was sent off in their previous match against Manchester City. However, manager Andoni Iraola confirmed that Alex Scott might return to the lineup after missing last week’s loss.

On the other hand, Leicester will not feature veteran striker Jamie Vardy, who played his last game last weekend and marked a heartfelt farewell. In Vardy’s absence, Patson Daka is expected to lead the offense.

Leicester has shown signs of improvement lately with two wins in their last three matches, despite their overall disappointing season. Manager Ruud van Nistelrooy‘s squad also has several injury concerns, including Mads Hermansen and Stephy Mavididi.

As both teams prepare for the match, Bournemouth looks to exploit Leicester’s weaknesses and secure a victory in front of their home fans, while Leicester aims to finish their season with a sense of pride.

The match is set to kick off at 4:00 PM local time, with referee Lewis Smith officiating. Both clubs are eager for a win, as the season comes to a close.
