Bournemouth vs Tottenham Predicted Lineups: Premier League

Thursday night's Premier League clash between Bournemouth and Tottenham Hotspur sees both sides in need of a win for different reasons. Tottenham, struggling for consistency, will look to leverage their attacking depth against a Bournemouth side enjoying a wave of confidence following a statement victory over Wolves.

The Cherries have proven their ability to compete with top-tier opposition, defeating Arsenal and Manchester City earlier this season. However, with key absences and the challenge of Spurs’ dynamic attack, Bournemouth’s resilience will be tested.

Meanwhile, Tottenham are aiming to find stability, with Ange Postecoglou's side still fighting for momentum in this Premier League season.

Bournemouth will likely stick with their 4-2-3-1 formation, which has yielded recent successes. Kepa Arrizabalaga is set to start in goal, supported by a backline featuring Adam Smith, Illia Zabarnyi, Marcos Senesi, and Milos Kerkez.

In midfield, Philip Billing and Ryan Christie are expected to anchor the team, with Justin Kluivert, Antoine Semenyo, and Marcus Tavernier providing creativity in the attacking midfield roles.

Evanilson will lead the line as the focal point of the Cherries’ attack. With Antoine Semenyo returning from suspension, David Brooks is likely to make way, despite his recent appearances.
