BOURNEMOUTH
Argentinian defender Marcos Senesi is the closest of three key injury absentees, alongside Ryan Fredericks and Luis Sinisterra, but the former Feyenoord defender is expected to remain absent for this week.
The Cherries will have to make a late call on the fitness of Scotland international Ryan Christie, who is suffering from a cut on his knee. Andoni Iraola said there would be changes after playing on Saturday.

UNAVAILABLE: Senesi (Injured), Fredericks (Injured), Sinisterra (Injured)

THE PREDICTION
Andoni Iraola’s AFC Bournemouth remain in contention for a potential top seven or eight finish and therefore European qualification. The Cherries pulled off a 2-1 defeat of Everton at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday, meaning they have now collected ten points from their last four matches. Oliver Glasner’s Crystal Palace were pegged back in the second-half at the City Ground on Saturday and were forced to share a 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest. The Eagles have won just one of Glasner’s four games and backing Bournemouth looks the way to go for this one, given their form and home advantage.
TIP: BOURNEMOUTH TO WIN
