Leicester showed in their last outing vs. Arsenal that they are able to compete with the very best teams in this division, but fell short in stoppage time. We do have to stay positive and hope Steve Cooper will be successful and bring him his first three pointer vs. Bournemouth.
Bournemouth showed their qualities vs. Southampton and comes into this game with confidence, let’s hope Leicester can get them back to ground and settle this one.
We believe Leicester can win, but then it is up to the manager to pick the correct eleven as well as a good bench to be able to bring home all three points.
We would expect the team to be as close to the line-up vs. Arsenal as possible, and do believe that the line-up will have one change, bringing in Abdul Fatawu and rest Facundo Bounanotte.

AFC Bournemouth is a professional association football club based in Kings Park, Boscombe, a suburb of Bournemouth, Dorset, England. They compete in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Formed in 1899 as Boscombe, the club adopted their current name in 1971. Nicknamed “The Cherries”, and commonly referred to as Bournemouth, they have played their home games at Dean Court since 1910.
The club competed in regional football leagues before going up from the Hampshire League to the Southern League in 1920. Now known as Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic, they were elected into the Football League in 1923. They remained in the Third Division South for 35 years, winning the Third Division South Cup in 1946. Placed in the newly reorganised Third Division in 1958, they suffered relegation in 1970, but would win an immediate promotion in 1970–71. Relegated back into the Fourth Division in 1975, Bournemouth were promoted again in 1981–82 and after lifting the Associate Members’ Cup in 1984 would go on to win the Third Division title in 1986–87. They spent three seasons in the second tier but entered administration in 1997 and ended up back in the fourth tier with relegation in 2002, though immediately gained promotion by winning the play-offs in 2003, read more
