Bournemouth will welcome West Ham United to the Vitality Stadium this weekend in a must-win battle down at the bottom of the Premier League with both sides currently sitting outside of the bottom three by just a handful of points.
These two are separated by just two points and one position in the league table, but both are beginning to see their fears of a drop into the Championship ease after a solid run of form.
The Cherries have seen their goals difference get way better as well heading into this one, and the club are now above the bottom three by six points after a stunning 3-2 win away to Tottenham Hotspur.
Matias Vina scored that day before Dominic Solanke made it 2-2. The headlines were stolen by Dango Ouattara in the 95th minute of the game, as his finish stole all three points.
West Ham eased to a 4-1 win over Gent in midweek after Michail Antonio scored a brace before Declan Rice covered half the pitch in a fantastic solo goal. Lucas Paqueta also netted a penalty in a comeback win that saw the Hammers win 5-2 on aggregate.
David Moyes' men are above the drop zone by four points and although they are closer to Nottingham Forest in 18th, his side have a game in hand after the 2-2 comeback draw against Arsenal.
West Ham are coming into this one with very few injuries to worry about with most of their players returning to action in the past week. Gianluca Scamacca remains injured, however, with Angelo Ogbonna still out for another week at least it seems.
The Hammers could also make changes to this game here with Manuel Lanzini missing the midweek outing against Gent, as Pablo Fornals and Danny Ings were also unused substitutes. Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianksi was also rested and should come into the starting XI here.
Bournemouth still have a few injuries to deal with, however, as Junior Stanislas is out of this one still and won't return until May. Ryan Fredericks is nearing a return but he is still not ready to do so here.
Hamed Traore is facing a late fitness test, but it doesn't seem like he will be fit to play here. Matias Vina is also in the same boat but he will seemingly be fit.
Forebet predicts a draw here and for the game to see over 2.5 goals.
