Bournemouth and Arsenal both come into this Premier League clash off the back of victories in the Carabao Cup, with Bournemouth cruising past Stoke and Arsenal winning a tricky tie away at Brentford.

Neither side will be particularly thrilled with their start to the Premier League season, with Bournemouth hovering above the relegation zone on three points and Arsenal already four points behind champions, leaders and title favourites Manchester City.

Dominim Solanke has managed to shake off an ankle injury sustained against Stoke in time for Arsenal's visit and starts in attack alongside Marcus Tavernier and Justin Kluivert.

A number of players like Emiliano Marcondes, Alex Scott, Ryan Fredericks, Lloyd Kelly and Chris Mepham are all out injured too. USA international Tyler Adams doesn't make the squad.

Bournemouth confirmed lineup vs Arsenal

Bournemouth confirmed lineup vs Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Neto; Aarons, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez; Christie, Cook; Tavernier, Billing, Kluivert; Solanke.

Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka both suffered injuries against Tottenham last weekend but have recovered in time for Premier League duties on the south coast.

Leandro Trossard is named on the bench while Kai Haverts gets another start in midfield. Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah feature alongside Saka in the Gunners attack.

David Raya keeps his league spot in goal ahead of Aaron Ramsdale, but there's no space for Gabriel Martinelli, Jurrien Timber or Thomas Partey.

Arsenal predicted lineup vs Bournemouth (4-3-3): Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Odegaard, Rice, Havertz; Saka, Nketiah, Jesus.

Bournemouth vs Arsenal score prediction

The fact that Arsenal are likely to be without Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka makes it hard to back them quite as much as you'd expect, and there are other good players out injured too.

That being said, Bournemouth do not appear to be up to a great deal at the moment and whilst they should make things quite hard for Mikel Arteta's side, Arsenal should still have the quality to get a narrow win.
