Bournemouth, Recent FormBournemouth will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 0-0 result against Brentford last time out. They came away from that fixture with a possession stat of 42% and clocked up 7 attempts on goal with 1 on target, in comparison to Brentford, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
Their boss Gary O'Neil is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 15 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 4 goals scored. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. With 5 clean sheets in their last 6 home games, they are proving tough to beat at Vitality Stadium.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Vitality Stadium, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 3 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Leicester City, Recent FormIn their previous league fixture, Leicester City managed a remarkable 4-0 home win against Nottingham Forest. Their share of possession in that meeting was 52%, while racking up 17 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target, in contrast to the numbers reached by Nottingham Forest, who had 10 shots on goal with 3 on target.
They have bagged 10 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 16 times in that period. Their run of scoring away from home now extends to 10 games. Having failed to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches, they definitely have some defensive problems to resolve at the moment.
Their recent results are not something they'll be looking to repeat, having lost 5 of their last 6 games. They've had a poor start to their season losing 6 of 8 league games.
Goalscorer James Maddison will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 5 goals in his last 6 league matches for Leicester City.
It was an unmittigated disaster for Leicester City last time they met Bournemouth in the league, with The Cherries turning the form book on its head to beat Leicester 4-1.
Goals should be on the cards for The Foxes in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Bournemouth in their last 5 meetings together.
Leicester have lost the last 2 times they've have visited Bournemouth in the league and have failed to win any of their last 5 encounters at Vitality Stadium.
Leicester player Jamie Vardy will be feeling confident about recording goals against Bournemouth ahead of this encounter, with a scoring record of 4 goals from their last 5 meetings.
Bournemouth manager Gary O'Neil has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. David Brooks (Lack of fitness), Ryan Fredericks (Muscle), Lloyd Kelly (Muscle), Ben Pearson (Knock) and Joe Rothwell (Thigh) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Ryan Bertrand (Knee) and Ricardo Pereira (Achilles tendon) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Brendan Rodgers will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
