#2 Testing time ahead for Bournemouth
Last season, Bournemouth were the surprise package. This season, however, they are unable to replicate the same or even 50% of it!
Trending
Defoe hasn't hit the ground running, Josh King is missing, injuries are piling up the pressure and the team is not able to click whatsoever. Eddie Howe needs to wave his magic wand again but is out of the portions and special ingredients!
Bournemouth face Newcastle United, Huddersfield, Swansea, Burnley, Southampton and Crystal Palace in the next 6 games before they face Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City just before the festive period.
If the Cherries fail to get at least 12 points from the next 6 games, it will be a tough task for them to stay in the Premier League. Moreover, it might signal the end of Eddie Howe's reign at Vitality too as the owners would opt to sack him despite what he's achieved at the club!
