3 talking points ahead of Bournemouth vs Arsenal
- Gunners face Bournemouth at Vitality Stadium
- Issues surrounding fitness
- Good record against a struggling team
3. Cherries' mixed start
After a good end to last season, Bournemouth have endured a mixed start to this campaign. Having won two, drawn two and lost three of their opening seven games, the Cherries are currently sat in 13th position in the league.
Andoni Iraola's side have already faced tough opposition in the form of Chelsea and Liverpool, losing 1-0 and 3-0 respectively, but will be looking to nick a result against the Gunners on Saturday.
While they must be weary, Arsenal have a perfect opportunity to capitalise on Bournemouth's struggle to start the season well and in doing so they can continue their unbeaten start to their 2024-25 campaign.
