Bournemouth v Sunderland team news: Kroupi up front

28 February 2026 266 comments

Skonto Rigga

In-form Bournemouth take on a Sunderland side without a win in eight away league matches in Saturday’s early kick-off.

The action gets underway at 12.30pm GMT.

TEAM NEWS

Andoni Iraola makes two changes from last weekend.

Evanilson and Amine Adli drop to the bench, with David Brooks and Marcus Tavernier promoted to the starting line-up.

This is the fit-again Tavernier’s first league start since mid-January.

As a result of Evanilson’s demotion to substitute duty, it looks like Eli Junior Kroupi will be playing up front.

As for Sunderland, Regis Le Bris makes four changes from the 3-1 home defeat by Fulham.

Three are enforced due to injuries to Nordi Mukiele, Brian Brobbey and Jocelin Ta Bi.

Nilson Angulo drops to the bench, too.

Coming into the side, Granit Xhaka returns to the starting line-up for the first time in six weeks.

Lutsharel Geertruida, Eliezer Malenda and Chemsdine Talbi are also handed recalls.

LINE-UPS

Bournemouth XI: Petrovic, Jimenez, Hill, Senesi, Truffert, Scott, Adams, Brooks, Rayan, Kroupi, Tavernier.

Subs: Mandas, Evanilson, Christie, Smith, Diakite, Adli, Unal, Toth, Milosavljevic.

Sunderland XI: Roefs, Geertruida, Ballard, Alderete, Hume, Sadiki, Xhaka, Le Fee, Diarra, Mayenda, Talbi.

Subs: Ellborg, Angulo, Rigg, O’Nien, Isidor, Traore, Aleksic, H Jones, J Jones.

Looks like Szos starting in the 10. Typical. I wavered as Wirtz was out and went Mbuemo. This is going to hurt I can feel it!

Is Haaland actually out later? Anyone checked betting markets?

If he’s benched then the pitchforks need to come out for those who went Bruno cap

  I capped Haaland but if he isn't playing then all the teams that have capped Bruno need to be banned from FPL

  Bruno would always be more popular on models - the good chance of a CS point, more points per goal etc.

  There’s a better chance of that happening this week. Perfect fixture for Pep to spin some balls

Why did Roefs not get 6 points for playing the full 90?

I'm gonna be stuck with Rogers until GW31 by the looks of things. He's on my bench this week but man I really want rid. Big mistake on WC24 going for him over Semenyo. Big big mistake.

  I can hide him on the bench for a bit. Once people start transfering him out in droves, his points will pick up again.
  
  Anyone I put in my team these days has a ceiling of 2 points, so not in a rush to sell.
