THE TEAM NEWS
BOURNEMOUTH
- Bournemouth brought a four-match streak without a win to an end as they defeated Luton in the FA Cup but will be desperate to back that up.
- They have slipped into the relegation zone after some poor performances including a 4-0 reverse to West Ham in their last game.
- Eddie Howe has numerous injuries to contend with and is set to rely on Dominic Solanke and Callum Wilson to score the goals his side need.
Predicted line-up (4-4-2): Ramsdale; Francis, S. Cook, Mepham, Diego Rico; H. Wilson, Lerma, L. Cook, Fraser; C. Wilson, Solanke
Unavailable: Brooks (Injured), Daniels (Injured), Ake (Injured), Smith (Injured), Groeneveld (Injured), Kelly (Injured), King (Injured), Stacey (Injured)
Doubtful:
WATFORD
- Watford's strong start under Nigel Pearson has seen them chase down the teams above them and they could exit the relegation zone with a win here.
The Hornets threw away a 3-0 lead at home to Tranmere in the FA Cup last week but that did make it five games unbeaten in all competitions.
Roberto Pereyra was sent off in that game but it was overturned on appeal to provide a welcome boost to Watford's injury-hit squad.
Predicted line-up (4-3-3): Foster; Mariappa, Dawson, Cathcart, Holebas; Chalobah, Capoue, Doucoure; Sarr, Deeney, Deulofeu
Unavailable: Janmaat (Injured), Welbeck (Injured), Prodl (Injured), Cleverley (Injured), Kiko Femenia (Injured), Kabasele (Suspended)
Doubtful: Hughes (Injured), Domingos Quina (Injured)
THE PREDICTION
Bournemouth are on an awful run of form and have slipped into the relegation zone as a result. They host an in-form Watford who will have their sights firmly set on another victory to continue their brilliant start under Nigel Pearson and the visitors should earn at least a point here.
