AFC Bournemouth Predicted Lineup Vs Tottenham Hotspur

Recent Line-up for Bournemouth

This season, Bournemouth has used a 4-2-3-1 formation.

In goal, Serbian goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic will start. Full-backs Alex Jimenez and Adrien Truffert are set to provide support in defense. Center-backs Marcos Senesi and James Hill have recently teamed up, while Bafode Diakite is also available as an option.

Against Arsenal, Alex Scott and Marcus Tavernier played in deeper midfield positions, with Justin Kluivert as the number ten. Unfortunately, Kluivert is now sidelined due to injury.

David Brooks and Antoine Semenyo will operate on the wings, frequently switching sides during the game. Leading the attack is Evanilson, though he faces competition from the promising Eli Junior Kroupi, who has an impressive goals-per-minute ratio this season.

Injuries for Bournemouth

Head coach Andoni Iraola is managing several injuries currently.

Tyler Adams and Ben Gannon-Doak are long-term absentees and will not return soon.

Iraola shared that Kluivert will require surgery, but a timeline for his recovery isn’t clear. Veljko Milosavljevic is back in training but not yet match-ready, while Ryan Christie is still on the mend.
