AFC Bournemouth will face Newcastle United in the FA Cup after ending their winless run against Tottenham Hotspur midweek. The match is scheduled for 15:00 GMT on January 10 at St James’ Park. Below is the predicted lineup for Bournemouth.
AFC Bournemouth Predicted Lineup Vs Newcastle United
Recent Lineup Overview
Bournemouth has typically used a 4-2-3-1 formation this season.
Serbian goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic is in goal, though there are concerns from supporters regarding his performance. Alex Jimenez and Adrien Truffert make a young and dynamic pair of full-backs. Marcos Senesi recently partnered with James Hill at center-back, while Bafode Diakite has seen limited playing time.
In midfield, Alex Scott and Lewis Cook have played deeper roles recently. Justin Kluivert usually operates as the number ten but is currently sidelined due to injury, with Marcus Tavernier stepping in to fill that role.
Antoine Semenyo is joined by Eli Junior Kroupi on the wings. David Brooks has been a steady performer this season, but Kroupi’s excellent form has made him hard to overlook. Evanilson remains Bournemouth’s primary striker, as coach Andoni Iraola continues to support him, despite Kroupi scoring seven goals in the league.
Injury Updates
Iraola is managing several injuries, with only 15 outfield players available for selection.
Tyler Adams and Ben Gannon-Doak are out long-term and won’t return soon.
Recently, Iraola reported that Kluivert requires surgery, though no timeline for his recovery has been provided. Veljko Milosavljevic returned to action against Tottenham, while Ryan Christie is still recovering.
Evanilson and Enes Unal experienced minor issues during the Tottenham match and are being evaluated. Their participation in the upcoming game is uncertain, according to Iraola.
Semenyo has completed his transfer to Manchester City.
