Following their heroics at QPR to start the New Year on a high note, Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola chose not to take his side abroad on a warm-weather training camp during a 15-day winter break, instead giving his players a well-deserved rest after a strong run of form in the final two months of 2023.
The Cherries were upbeat going into Sunday’s match against Premier League leaders Liverpool, but they crashed back down to earth after being thrashed 4-0 at home. Despite being level with Liverpool for much of the first half, Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota each scored twice after the break to condemn Iraola’s side to their second consecutive league defeat.

Swansea were failed to extend their unbeaten run across all competitions to five matches when they were defeated 3-1 at home by high-flying Southampton in the Championship last weekend.
Che Adams and Will Smallbone gave the Saints a two-goal lead inside the first 20 minutes, before Jamie Paterson equalized for the Swans five minutes before halftime, but birthday boy Flynn Downes scored against his former club on the stroke of halftime to quickly restore Southampton’s two-goal advantage.

Bournemouth won their only previous FA Cup meeting with Swansea 24 years ago, and we expect them to win again on Thursday. The visitors have a chance to frustrate the Cherries and create problems on the counter-attack, but Iraola’s men should have little trouble securing the victory they require to advance to the fifth round.
Bournemouth 4-1 Swansea City, predicted by us.
