[BelfastAndy]

TEAM NEWS

The Cherries will also monitor Matias Vina and Marcos Senesi, who suffered from cramp in midweek, while Jack Stephens returns after being ineligible against his parent club.

Ryan Fredericks, Junior Stanislas and Hamed Traore are likely to remain out.

Leeds winger Luis Sinisterra will miss the rest of the season after injuring his ankle against Leicester.

Max Wober is doubtful after missing Tuesday's match through injury, while Tyler Adams and Stuart Dallas remain sidelined.

MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

Leeds have won 10 of 13 league games against Bournemouth in their history, including nine of the previous 10.

Bournemouth last hosted Leeds in September 2014, losing 3-1 in a Championship fixture.

Bournemouth

Gary O'Neil's team have won six of their past 11 Premier League matches, losing the other five.

Defeats by Brighton and West Ham have left the Cherries in danger of losing three consecutive top-flight home games, a sequence they have recorded only twice before (in 2016 and 2019).

Bournemouth have lost 22 of their 30 Premier League matches played on Sundays (W6, D2), including their only such fixture this season - last weekend's 4-0 loss to West Ham.

Each of their last six Premier League home goals has been scored by a different player.

Dominic Solanke scored 17 goals in 23 home league games for Bournemouth last season but has netted just once in 14 top-flight appearances at the *****ity Stadium in the current campaign.

Leeds United

The Whites have earned nine Premier League away points this season - only Nottingham Forest have a worse record, with six.

Leeds' 0-0 draw at Newcastle on 31 December is their only clean sheet in 18 top-flight away fixtures.

They have scored and conceded in each of their past eight league matches, their longest such run since a streak of nine in 1987.

Leeds won nine of their first 10 Premier League games against newly promoted sides after returning to the top flight in 2020 but have lost three of five such matches this season.

They could lose all three fixtures away to newly-promoted opposition in a Premier League season for the third time, having previously done so in 1992-93 and 2003-04.

2 - 0.

MOT.

So, Bournemouth on an English public Bank Holiday weekend 2023.

May 5th 1990, now that Bank Holiday score line will do nicely again.
Bet they'll like to be the ones to put us down in revenge & hope it don't go ugly.

Everton fans made their feelings known when down there recently I recall. We'll have an away following of 1282 in our official Ticket allocation, I'd suspect a few more will travel down to the south-coast in the hope of getting in though.

Bournemouth have stated they'll check all ground entry tickets before admission so don't be tempted to 'obtain' a last minute bargain Junior ticket outside ground if your a ticketless Adult as they'll check all photo ID at turnstiles !

Just watched my local team Nantes hammered 5-1 in the French Cup final tonight in Paris on tv & never seen a French bar empty so quickly - so really looking forward to the game against Bournemouth & a win now !

Just not a repeat of the rest of the 1990 "events", please.

Jesus H Christ with bells on. Roca still playing and the useless carthorse Barndoor given yet another chance (how many more times?). Why isn't Joseph at least on the bench? WE NEED TO SCORE SOME CLUCKING GOALS YOU MUPPET.
