Everton vs Bournemouth Prediction 10 February 2026
🔊 Everton have hit a milestone this season, going five matches unbeaten for the first time. Their next challenge is Bournemouth, who, after a steady start in November and December, have faltered and now find themselves in the lower half of the table. Can the Cherries avenge their loss to the Toffees in their debut match at Everton's stadium? We break down the Matchday 26 encounter in the English Premier League and offer a prediction for the game on February 10.
Head-to-Head
📊 Over the past five seasons, Everton and Bournemouth have faced off nine times: the Merseyside club has claimed three victories, while Bournemouth have come out on top in six encounters. The first-round clash at Dean Court saw the Toffees secure a 1-0 win, thanks to a second-half goal from Jack Grealish.
Interestingly, teams managed by David Moyes (Everton, Manchester United, Sunderland, and West Ham) have only suffered one defeat to Bournemouth: four matches ended in draws, while his clubs emerged victorious in five encounters.
Head-to-head statistics Everton - Bournemouth

Bournemouth Team Overview
Bournemouth extended their unbeaten run in the Premier League to five matches after a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa, climbing to 11th place in the standings. Crucial points against the Birmingham side were secured by a goal from 19-year-old Ryan early in the second half - the newcomer has now contributed in both of his matches since joining the team.
Away from home, Bournemouth have not won two consecutive matches since February 2025. Their last away game, however, was a victory as the Cherries defeated Wolverhampton 2-0. On Tuesday, they will have a chance to break this negative streak and another one, as Bournemouth have not managed to keep a clean sheet in two consecutive away games for over two years.

Latest news
Everton
🎙 Head coach David Moyes after the victory over Fulham: "There were parts of the first half I didn't like. We didn't get close to their goal often enough and conceded a frustrating one. I felt we controlled the ball reasonably well, but our main issue was not progressing forward; we were holding the ball around the halfway line and not really threatening their defense. In the second half, we managed that task much better."
❌ Jack Grealish, who scored the only goal against Bournemouth in the first round, will miss the rest of the season. According to Moyes, the winger requires surgery and a lengthy recovery. Grealish remains Everton's top assist provider this season across all competitions (with 6 assists) and is the leader in combined goals and assists (8 points).
Bournemouth
🎙 Despite earning a point against a top-3 team, Iraola expressed dissatisfaction with the performance against Villa: “If you look at the game - it's not enough. I can't be completely satisfied because we were the better side but couldn't secure the win. I told the players at halftime that we were playing very well and needed to keep up that level of performance.”
❌ Bournemouth's attacking midfielder Marcus Tavernier will remain sidelined for at least two more weeks, after having contributed to goals in three consecutive matches before his injury. Defensive midfielder Tyler Adams and winger Ben Gannon-Doak are expected to return by the end of February, while midfielder Justin Kluivert is recovering until April.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
English referee Andy Madley has officiated 14 Premier League matches this season. His average rate of cautions in the Premier League stands at 2.9 yellow cards per match. In the clash with Fulham, Liverpool players received five bookings-a season-high record. The Everton squad have not had back-to-back games with four or more yellow cards this season. Following their matches against Brighton and Nottingham Forest (where they received four cautions each), fixtures against Mansfield Town and Chelsea saw Everton players avoiding any bookings. Assuming the team will learn from this, we opt for Everton's individual total yellow cards to be under 1.5.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
In the 2025/26 Premier League season, Bournemouth's away games have featured lively starts. On average, their away matches see 2.1 goals in the first half. In each of Bournemouth's 12 away fixtures, at least one goal has been scored in the opening 45 minutes. We anticipate this trend to continue, so we choose total goals in the first half to be over 1.
🚩 Corner Prediction
With a favorable fixture list, Everton are likely to take the initiative against Bournemouth. In 6 of their last 7 Premier League encounters with the "Cherries," the "Toffees" have delivered at least five corners. Therefore, we select Everton's individual total corners to be over 4.5.
Editor's Prediction
Both teams are on a roll, each enjoying a five-match unbeaten streak. Bournemouth's first trip to Everton's new stadium marks a significant moment, as the Cherries have never lost both fixtures against Everton in a Premier League season over the past eight years.
However, midweek statistics don't favor the visitors-Bournemouth have failed to win in seven of their last eight midweek games. Therefore, a draw seems like a reasonable prediction. Considering that three of Liverpool's last five Premier League matches ended 1-1, it's plausible that Tuesday's encounter could conclude with the same scoreline.
