Team News

Bournemouth
Man City
  • Andoni Iraola is sweating on the fitness of Luis Sinisterra, Kepa and Philip Billing, but Alex Scott is a confirmed absentee for the Cherries.
  • Iraola may go for the same XI that started last week's 1-1 draw with Aston Villa, with the exception of Dango Ouattara who is a doubt.
  • Manchester City's injury list is mounting, with Savinho the latest player to feature in the physio room.
  • Pep Guardiola will hope to have Ruben Dias, Manuel Akanji and Josko Gvardiol available.

Prediction

  • Bournemouth rescued a late point at Aston Villa last week, though the stalemate means they have won only two of their last six.
  • Manchester City's unbeaten start to the season came to an end at Tottenham on Wednesday as they crashed out of the EFL Cup.
  • City have won their last 15 meetings with Bournemouth and even with their increasing injury list, they should have enough to sneak a win on Saturday.
