Team news

Bournemouth have no new injury concerns for the visit of Southampton, though head coach Andoni Iraola serves a one-game touchline ban after accumulating three yellow cards.

Midfielder Tyler Adams is the only player Iraola has ruled out of Monday's fixture, although the Spaniard said on Friday that team news is "difficult" to assess with three days to go until the game takes place.

Will Smallbone and Kamaldeen Sulemana are Southampton's only absentees due to injury but Smallbone could return to face Arsenal next weekend.

Jack Stephens serves the final game of a three-match suspension.
