Bournemouth vs Leicester live stream: How to watch Premier League fixture online and on TV today

Bournemouth take on Leicester knowing they must win or face almost-certain relegation from the Premier League.

The Cherries are six points from safety but if they can win this game in hand over Watford, West Ham and Aston Villa above them, they can give themselves a real shot at survival. However they will have to overcome a Leicester team who still have plenty to play for themselves, mired as they are in a battle to finish in the top four. Chelsea’s hammering by Sheffield United means the Foxes can climb back into third place with a victory here at the Vitality Stadium.

Follow all the action live:

Wins this weekend for West Ham, Watford, Bournemouth and Aston Villa who would have thought that?
Who saw this scoreline before kick off? 
What does it all mean? Bournemouth move back up to 18th overtaking Aston Villa. They're just three points behind Watford and safety. The relegation battle is still alive. 
For Leicester they stay in fourth place. One point above Manchester United and one point behind Chelsea. Manchester United face Southampton tomorrow and could drop Leicester out of the top four for the first time since September 2019.  
FULL TIME
90+6 mins: What a result for Bournemouth. After Watford and then Aston Villa both won this weekend the pressure was really on. But they remained calm, cool and collected. Leicester have never won at the Vitality Stadium in the Premier Leage and their wait goes on.
90+3 mins: This game has very much been a tale of two halfs. Bournemouth looked beaten in the first and for the first 20 minutes of the second. They were gifted a penalty by Schmeichel and Ndidi and haven't looked back. 
More goals in one half than their last five games put together. 
90 mins: Six minutes added time to play. Bournemouth cruising now.

Stanislas brings the ball into the box. He shoots and the ball hits Jonny Evans' right leg and deflects past Schmeichel into the net. Lady luck is smiling on Bournemouth!
SUBS
81 mins: Bournemouth attempt to run the clock down as Lewis Cook comes on for David Brooks. Brooks has had a decent day, still short of his best but a much needed addition to Bournemouth's side.
78 mins: Billing wins a free kick over on the left wing. Bournemouth whip it into the box but it's headed out by Leicester for a throw in. Brooks takes the throw in and gives it to Stanislas. He returns the ball and Brooks put a beautiful ball into the box but Schmeichel manages to hold onto it.
75 mins: Leicester lost the plot for five minutes and they conceded twice and had a man sent off. Talk about a nightmare. Bournemouth have their tails up now, this may kick start their survival campaign. Dominic Solanke scored for the first time in 39 games.
72 mins: Huge momentum shift in this game now. Bournemouth have a one-goal lead and a man advantage. Can they hold on until the end of the 90?
RED CARD!
70 mins: Caglar Soyuncu is sent off for Leicester. He chased the ball down as it crossed the line and Callum Wilson ran him into the side netting. Soyuncu retaliates by kicking out at Wilson as Solanke celebrates the goal. Stuart Attwell sees this and pulls out the red card. Leicester down to 10-men as well.
GOAL!
67 mins: GOAL! Bournemouth 2 - 1 Leicester - (Solanke)
What a turn around. A long ball comes up the left wing. Evans flicks it on and Solanke collects the ball. He runs it into the box ans puts the ball underneath Kasper Schmeichel. Bournemouth lead!
