The first of three Sunday afternoon fixtures gets underway at the Vitality Stadium as Bournemouth entertain Southampton in the 1.30pm kick-off.

Eddie Howe’s side have chalked up four clean sheets in eight matches in front of their own fans, with Charlie Daniels and Steve Cook heading into Gameweek 17 amongst the top seven scoring Fantasy Premier League defenders.

The out of position Adam Smith has also piqued our interest on the right flank, while Nathan Ake budget price tag made him the number one defender for transfers in ahead of the weekend.

Up against a Saints side with three goals in the last seven Gameweeks, Howe’s defence could plunder the points once again.

Bearing in mind that Southampton have served up four clean sheets in the previous five, goals may be hard to come by in this one.

Owners of Cedric Soares will be relieved as the right-back recovers from illness to return to Claude Puel’s starting XI.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

            Ouch, CB rotation hurt me today too. (Fonte).

            Strange how we all thought the full backs would be rotated and not the player recently returned from injury.

            1. GHB
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Yeah crazy, surely Toby injured.

              I doubled up on spurs with Rose, really frustrating
