Bournemouth v Tottenham Hotspur: match preview

Bournemouth v Tottenham Hotspur
Bournemouth v Tottenham Hotspur: probable starters in bold, contenders in light.

Bournemouth welcome Mauricio Pochettino’s side to a ground that has become something of a fortress recently. Eddie Howe’s team have recorded three consecutive home wins, although the size of the task ahead of them on Saturday needs no introduction. Bournemouth took the lead in the first minute but were humiliated 5-1 by Tottenham in this fixture last season, with Harry Kane scoring a hat-trick. Ben Fisher
