Season ticket holders at Vitality Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with AFC Bournemouth languishing in the 19th position so far. The guesting Tottenham Hotspur will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

The visiting Tottenham Hotspur played their last game only three days ago, a Premier League match.

Relegation threatens AFC Bournemouth who should definitely be looking for some points here. Tottenham Hotspur are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

AFC Bournemouth form and stats

4-5-7 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for AFC Bournemouth so far this season. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Bournemouth with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Chelsea game, 131 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Bournemouth are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Vitality Stadium, having lost their two previous games here.

Bournemouth faced defeat in their previous match, away at Manchester United (2-5). Ahead of that match, Bournemouth lost 1-4 at home to Newcastle United.

A goal frenzy last time out for Bournemouth, with a total of 7 goals in the match against Manchester United. Fun stuff to watch! Bournemouth's goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale was extremely busy against Manchester United, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning six saves.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Bournemouth as they have a new game in only three days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. Leicester City are visiting.

Bournemouth are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 16 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 27 goals have been conceded.
