AFC Bournemouth Predicted Lineup Vs Newcastle United
How Bournemouth Have Lined-up Recently
Bournemouth have lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation this season.
In net is Serbian goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic, though fans are turning against him. Alex Jimenez and Adrien Truffert form an exciting young pair of full-backs. Marcos Senesi has been joined by James Hill at centre-half recently, with Bafode Diakite struggling for minutes.

Alex Scott and Lewis played in the deeper midfield roles against Spurs. Justin Kluivert has usually been the number ten. However, the Dutchman is now out injured. Marcus Tavernier filled in through the middle.
Antoine Semenyo was joined by Eli Junior Kroupi on the wing. David Brooks has been a reliable player this year, but Kroupi’s form was too good to ignore. Evanilson is Bournemouth’s number nine; Andoni Iraola has stuck with him despite Kroupi scoring seven in the league, instead putting the Frenchman out wide.
Bournemouth Injuries to Consider
Iraola has a number of injuries to deal with at the moment, with only “15 outfield players” fit.
Tyler Adams and Ben Gannon-Doak have all been out for the long term and are not expected to return in the near future.

Iraola broke the “very bad news” of Kluivert requiring surgery last week, though revealed no timescale for his return. Veljko Milosavljevic has returned to the pitch against Tottenham, whilst Ryan Christie continues recovery.
Evanilson and Enes Unal finished the Tottenham game with “some issues” and are being assessed. They could well feature in the North East but it is not a guarantee, says Iraola.
Semenyo has now completed his transfer to Manchester City.
