Chance for Bournemouth, Harry Arter breaks forward down the right, feeds it to Joshua King, and he smacks a near post effort which Rob Elliot saves well. The subsequent corner is headed clear.

Powerful looking Newcastle midfield today, Moussa Sissoko takes the ball from a poor pass from Bournemouth defender Sylvain Distin, but cannot make any inroads.

"When Bournemouth have had success with particular principles you don’t want to throw that away by trying to get the results. If you have confidence in a system why change? They're learning and playing some good football."

Steady passing at the back from Bournemouth, looks like Harry Arter will play in behind lone striker Joshua King.

"On the day of the only previous league meeting at Bournemouth, Ride on Time went to number one. I loathed it. 'Gotta get up. Gotta get up!' The repetition was draining.

"That's the danger of Bournemouth's corrosive run to their confidence. Now's the time to dig deep.

"Yes, Artur Boruc had a howler on my last visit. But the whole side gave Spurs too much room. They need to get in Newcastle faces.

"The visitors likewise need to worry about points, not injuries. Just one away goal scored is the worst record in in the top 10 divisions.

"They should score, but I fancy Bournemouth's Matt Ritchie to win it."

Before we start today, the players, staff, fans and everyone at Dean Court is joined in a minute's silence for Remembrance Sunday. Superbly observed.

Aaron McCormack: Come on Newcastle! We've got this. We've got the players and we've played better in the last few games.

Leroy Mauris: Both teams will be relegated, which is a shame for Bournemouth because they don't deserve it.

Taylor Brown: Newcastle won't get relegated. We are dominating teams and once we start putting our chances away we'll be fine.

That said, goals are hard to come by for the Magpies, unless they're thumping Norwich 6-2 of course. In fact they have failed to find the net in six Premier League games this term - a league high.

"Both teams are low on results but confidence is high in both camps because they've played decent football. Newcastle have picked up a draw and a win in their last three games and are making chances. When you're playing well you know results will come."  

This is what Bournemouth and Newcastle are staring at. Too soon to call it a relegation six-pointer? (Adopts Newcastle accent) You de-cide!

Bournemouth make two changes to the side which lost 2-0 at Southampton last Sunday. Joshua King and Junior Stanislas are in for Marc Pugh and Glenn Murray after impressing as substitutes at St Mary's.

Newcastle are unchanged after the goalless draw at home with Stoke last Saturday. Watch out for Aleksandar Mitrovic today, the 21-year-old Serbian usually provides some entertainment!

We'll get some more Cherries chat in a minute but, first, let's check on the team news. 

Despite his side's wretched run of five games without a win, there is no panic from Cherries boss Eddie Howe, who had a revealing chat, external with the Guardian this week. Despite their injury crisis, Howe is refusing to use that as an excuse and says his team's plight is because "we haven’t performed well enough and we’ve made some individual mistakes.”  

Refreshingly honest, as always.

Bournemouth might have covered more ground than their opponents this season, but after an encouraging start to the season the Cherries have started to turn a bit sour. Eddie Howe's side, who are fourth from bottom in the table, host Newcastle, who are a point beneath them.

Some hardy souls from Tyneside will have been up in the wee small hours to get to Dean Court today. If you're making a round-trip of 720 miles, you'd hope that your side might put on a decent performance. 

But other than that stunning effort against Norwich, they have been in short supply. Is this the game where Steve McClaren's side can turn the corner?
