As per West Brom, Bournemouth have the better team and individuals on paper, but it is about our players winning as many of the personal battles as possible and showing total commitment. Then you never know what can happen.
Another chance for Wells up top, be interesting to see where Weimann plays…maybe RWB?
Heres the kind of line-ups Bournemouth have been going with:
Pretty settled CBs and left side, but a bit of rotation at RB with Stacey (very good imho) and Smith. Billing glides around if you give him the chance, and I’d be very tempted to tell Massengo to man-mark him.
Christie is very good technically and finds space, but I think you can rough him up a bit though. Pring at LWB over Dasilva today for me.
Martin will do well to get much change aerially out of Nat Phillips and Kelly, so will need Wells to pick up any loose stuff.
My eleven today FWIW:
Bentley
Cundy | Klose | Atkinson
Weimann | Scott | James | Massengo | Pring
Wells | Martin
Subs:
O’Leary, Vyner, Dasilva, Benarous, Owers, Bell, Conway
(Changes from West Brom 18 - Semenyo out / Scott in)
