Match preview: Tottenham vs Bournemouth
In the previous round, Tottenham beat Man City 2-0 at the Etihad. The London club has had an excellent start to the new Premier League season, having previously won convincingly against Burnley. Coach Thomas Frank has quickly found a solution for Tottenham's attack now that Son Heung-min is gone.
The atmosphere in the Tottenham dressing room is positive. The London club has been given extra motivation when in the final days of the transfer window, they completed the recruitment of midfielder Xavi Simons from Leipzig. Ahead of Tottenham are Bournemouth, West Ham, Brighton, Wolves and Leeds, all opponents that the "Roosters" can expect to win all 3 points. First of all, Tottenham must beat Bournemouth.
Bournemouth are in poor form in the Premier League. They recently lost 0-2 to Brentford in the second round of the English League Cup. Before that, Bournemouth won against Wolves and lost to Liverpool in the first two rounds of the Premier League. On the English top flight, Bournemouth remain stuck in the lower half of the table.
Bournemouth's squad strength is clearly incomparable to Tottenham's. Taking into account home advantage and form, the "Roosters" have the advantage of both time, place and people. Experts predict Tottenham will beat Bournemouth by 2 goals or more. Bournemouth will play defensively, so it is unlikely that there will be an explosion in the first half. Tottenham will likely score in the second half.
Form, head-to-head record Tottenham vs Bournemouth
Last season, Bournemouth won one and drew one against Tottenham. The small Premier League team almost made the "Roosters" regret both matches, when they led 2-0 at Tottenham Hotspur but let their opponents equalize 2-2. Throughout history, Tottenham has dominated Bournemouth in terms of achievements. But looking back at recent matches, the "Roosters" must respect their opponents.
Bournemouth's away record from the end of last season to the present has been quite impressive. They lost to Liverpool at Anfield in the opening round of this season but played well, scoring two goals. Before that, Bournemouth drew with Nottingham Forest and won against Everton in their two away matches in the final stages of the 2024/25 Premier League season.
Conversely, Tottenham also have a good home record. In their last five home games, they won against Burnley, beat Everton, lost against Arsenal, won against Brentford, and won against West Ham.
Tottenham vs Bournemouth team news
Tottenham will continue to be without Klusevski, Draguson, Maddison, Takai, and Gil. These are long-term injuries for the "Spurs". Udogie will return to the starting lineup for Tottenham. With the current high form of the squad, manager Frank will not be too worried about the absence of Klusevski and Maddison.
Bournemouth will be without defender Araujo due to suspension. This is a major blow to the visitors' playing style.
Expected lineup:
T ottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Palhinha, Bentancur; Kudus, Sarr, Johnson; Richarlison.
Bournemouth: Petrovic; Smith, Diakite, Senesi, Truffert; Adams, Scott; Semenyo, Tavernier, Brooks; Evanilson.
