Manchester City have beaten Bournemouth 15-1 on aggregate across their past four meetings, so a visit to the south coast seems the perfect match to remedy the wrongs of Monday night – when they rescued a draw against Everton. Bournemouth are point-less and yet to score in the league, although a midweek EFL Cup win at Birmingham has given Eddie Howe a welcome selection problem. “The positive thing from the week is that several players played well,” the Bournemouth manager said. “I’ll have to think hard about the team I pick.” Ben Fisher
