Premier League
Kick-off 3pm Saturday

Bournemouth are the only team in the bottom three who haven't changed their manager and they can reward that patience by gaining a victory over Stoke at the bet365 Stadium.

The Cherries have played well in their last two games – drawing 0-0 at home to Leicester and losing 1-0 at Tottenham – and just need to start showing a more clinical touch in front of goal.

The south coast side possess good attacking players and their luck may turn against Stoke, who could still be shell-shocked by last Saturday's 7-2 loss to Manchester City.

Recommendation
Bournemouth
