Manchester City have a chance to win a third straight Premier League match by at least five goals, a feat only they themselves and Chelsea have managed before, in 2017 and 2010 respectively.
After beating Leicester City 4-1 on Sunday, another victory over a top-four side would take AFC Bournemouth level on points with 17th-placed Watford in the relegation battle.
Team news
Sergio Aguero (knee) is definitely out for Man City but Ilkay Gundogan and Joao Cancelo could be fit to return after respective knocks.
Eddie Howe faces a defensive headache with Nathan Ake (groin), Simon Francis (knee), Chris Mepham (knee) and Adam Smith (knock) all ruled out. Joshua King (hamstring) remains a doubt.
