Game Preview
Bournemouth and Tottenham couldn't be trying to accomplish more different goals ahead of the final weeks of the 2019-20 Premier League season. The Cherries currently sit in the relegation zone with 27 points and, at this stage, only a miracle would save them from playing in the English Championship next season. They're coming off a 5-2 loss to Manchester United the last time out and have lost each of their last five games, while going winless in their last nine (D1, L8). Spurs remain alive in the race for a 2020-21 UEFA Europa League berth, and a win could potentially move them to seventh place in the standings. Jose Mourinho's men are coming off a 1-0 win over Everton and have lost just once in their last five league contests.

Tottenham: W2, D2, L1

Top Picks
Harry Kane, Tottenham: Kane was expected to be out for the remainder of the season, but the league suspension allowed him to get back into fitness, and he has now scored two goals since the restart. The England international has 12 goals this season and needs just four more strikes to match his 2018-19 tally. This is a good bet to further increase his total.
Son Heung-Min, Tottenham: Son has four goals and two assists in his last seven EPL matches, though he has recorded no goals in the four matches he's played since the restart. Bournemouth have struggled defensively, however, so this seems like a good matchup for Son if he wants to end his scoring drought.
