Kick-off 3pm Saturday

Every now and then there is a moment which changes the course of a season and that may have arrived for Bournemouth when Steve Cook headed an injury-time winner at Newcastle a fortnight ago.

The victory was well deserved and lifted them out of the drop zone for the first time since August.

Bournemouth will have gained a lot of confidence from their trip to Tyneside and a home match with Huddersfield - no wins in five on the road - gives them a great chance to post back-to-back league wins for the first time this season.

Recommendation
Bournemouth
2pts 20-23 Betfred
