In the last match, they have lost in an away match against Hull City by (3‑1), after in the previous match they have tied (3‑3) at home, against Arsenal.

They have conceded the first goal in 8 of their 21 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Bournemouth comes to this match unmotivated after an away defeat, by 3-1, while visiting Hull. The home team should play in a 4-3-3 tactical system, with the goal of trying to make the best of the countermoves. In any case, we believe that Bournemouth will adopt a more offensive posture, with the objective of trying to control the entire match. The coach of Bournemouth won't be able count on Francis because he is punished.

Confirmed Lineup: Artur Boruc, Adam Smith, Charlie Daniels, Steve Cook, Tyrone Mings, Junior Stanislas, Andrew Surman, Ryan Fraser, Callum Wilson, Joshua King.
Coach: J. Wilshere, G. O'Neil.
