Bournemouth Recent Form — Last 5
Burnley Recent Form — Last 5
Key Factors
The simultaneous absence of Burnley’s defensive anchor Axel Tuanzebe and primary goal-scorer Lyle Foster due to AFCON duty leaves the visitors without their spine, ensuring Bournemouth's high-intensity pressing will likely force decisive turnovers in the final third.
Bournemouth’s offensive momentum from their recent four-goal performance at Old Trafford, combined with Antoine Semenyo's availability following Ghana's failure to qualify for AFCON, gives the Cherries a significant talent advantage against a Burnley defense that has conceded in seven consecutive losses.
Burnley's psychological fragility from a seven-game losing streak, coupled with the return of Kyle Walker who lacks match sharpness, suggests the Clarets will struggle to maintain defensive discipline once Iraola’s side establishes territorial dominance.

Bournemouth: Tyler Adams (MCL), Ben Gannon-Doak (hamstring), Veljko Milosavljevic (knee). Burnley: Axel Tuanzebe, Lyle Foster, Hannibal Mejbri (all AFCON), Zeki Amdouni (ACL), Jordan Beyer (hamstring).
