Bournemouth vs Tottenham Hotspur live stream and match preview
Looking for a Bournemouth vs Tottenham Hotspur live stream? We've got you covered.
Bournemouth have arguably been one of the Premier League's most surprising teams this season. Tipped to be relegated before a ball had even been kicked, Bournemouth then sacked manager Scott Parker just a couple of games in. However, since then they have pulled off some impressive results and sit a respectable 14th in the table.
Monday night's loss to West Ham frustrated Gary O'Neil due to the controversial awarding of a goal to his opponents, but took solace in his side's performance. Despite being the last team to play last weekend, Bournemouth still come into this game fresher than Tottenham, who had to endure a game of ecstasy and agony in the space of a few minutes on Wednesday.
Playing Sporting Lisbon in the penultimate group stage fixture, Spurs knew a win would guarantee their place in the knockout rounds in 2023. In the final minute, with the scores tied at 1-1, Harry Kane had seemingly booked their place in the last-16, latching onto an Emerson Royal knockdown to convert past the Sporting goalkeeper.
However, a lengthy VAR check ensued, eventually coming to the correct conclusion that Kane was offside when Royal headed the ball down, and the goal was ruled out. Such emotion might have taken it out of Spurs, but they will have to pick themselves back up for a trip to the south coast. They might have an eye on their game against Marseille next Tuesday, though, paving the way for Bournemouth to capitalise.
Tottenham are still missing Dejan Kulusevski and Richarlison, but Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg returns after sitting out last weekend's defeat at Newcastle. Oliver Skipp and Yves Bissouma also start in midfield, with Rodrigo Bentancur dropping to the bench.
In defence, Cristian Romero remains out with a minor injury and Eric Dier is only on the bench, so Clement Lenglet, Ben Davies and Davinson Sanchez all start in Bournemouth. Emerson Royal and Ryan Sessegnon are the wing-backs for Antonio Conte's side this afternoon.
For Bournemouth, Dominic Solanke returns to the side. Kieffer Moore and Jordan Zemura also start against Spurs, while young goalkeeper Cameron Plain is on the bench. David Brooks and Lloyd Kelly are still out.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there, and FourFourTwo currently recommends:
