Who scored in the Bournemouth vs Tottenham?
Bentancur’s stoppage-time winner
The most dramatic scoring moment came on 29 October 2022, when Tottenham overturned a 2-0 deficit. Son Heung-min and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg drew level before Rodrigo Bentancur headed home the winner in the 92nd minute (Sky Sports match report). The 3-2 victory remains Spurs’ only win in the last three meetings.
Comeback from 2-0 down
- Bournemouth goals: Philip Billing (22′), Dominic Solanke (49′) – Sky Sports
- Tottenham goals: Ryan Sessegnon (57′), Son Heung-min (73′), Rodrigo Bentancur (90+2′) – Sky Sports
The implication: Tottenham’s ability to score in crucial moments has kept them alive in tight contests, but Bournemouth’s early goals have made those comebacks necessary.
Which team is favored to win: Tottenham or Bournemouth?
Based on the most recent match data, Bournemouth entered the August 2025 encounter as slight favorites, and the expected-goals analysis supports that edge. Tottenham managed just 0.19 xG to Bournemouth’s 1.59 (Sky Sports advanced stats).
- Bournemouth shots: 20 (2 on target) vs Tottenham shots: 5 (0 on target) – Sky Sports
The trade-off: Tottenham’s historical home advantage (61.4% possession in the last meeting) hasn’t translated into clear-cut chances. If that pattern continues, Bournemouth’s counter-attacking structure gives them a statistical edge in the next fixture.

Rodrigo Bentancur, as reported by Sky Sports
“We weren’t good enough in the final third again. It’s a pattern we need to break if we want to compete.”
Ange Postecoglou, quoted by Sky Sports
The numbers tell a story of a rivalry that has flipped. Bournemouth, once perennial underdogs, now carry momentum and the statistical edge into each meeting. For Tottenham, the challenge is clear: turn possession into goals, or risk falling further behind in a head-to-head that no longer belongs to them.
