Premier League preview and odds: AFC Bournemouth vs. Everton

November 28, 2015 15:00pm - Vitality Stadium

Premier League

Struggling AFC Bournemouth will face a tough test on Saturday when they welcome in-form Everton to the Vitality Stadium in the Barclays Premier League.

Bournemouth desperate for a win

It has now been more than two months since Bournemouth beat Sunderland to record their second ever Premier League victory. Since then, the South Coast club have gone seven games without a win having registered two draws and five defeats. The win against Sunderland was their one and only home win in the league.

The Cherries now sit just one place above the foot of the Premier League table with a total of nine points. They come into this game on the back of 2-2 draw away to Swansea City, a result that broke a run of four straight league defeats.

Everton unbeaten in three

Everton have moved up to seventh place in the table after their convincing 4-0 demolition of a struggling Aston Villa side. They now travel to the South Coast to take on the team just one place above Villa in the table.

The Toffees have only won just two of their six games on the road this season having drawn three and lost one. On their last away trip, they held West Ham to a 1-1 draw in London thanks to a goal from Romelu Lukaku.

Team news

Bournemouth have been hit hard by injuries but could welcome back Lee Tomlin, Artur Boruc and Marc Pugh this weekend. However, they remain without Christian Atsu, Callum Wilson, Tommy Elphick and Tyrone Mings.

Meanwhile, Everton have Tyias Browning, Leighton Baines and Steven Pienaar on the doubtful list, while Phil Jagielka will definitely miss out. On a positive note, the experienced duo of Tony Hibbert and Bryan Oviedo should be available for selection.
