Premier League 2015-2016: Bournemouth vs Tottenham Hotspur, Preview, Prediction & Predicted Lineup

| Oct 22, 2015 12:57 AM EDT

Tottenham striker Harry Kane is tackled by Liverpool midfielder Emre Can.

Reeling squad AFC Bournemouth (2-5-2, 8 points) is scheduled to play Tottenham Hotspur (3-1-5, 14 points) at the Vitality Stadium this Sunday, October 25 as the 2015-2016 Premier League season moves forward.

Last season's Sky Bet Championship winner has only won once in their last six games and is currently on a three-game winless skid. Their last match was a 1-5 blowout in the hands of league leader Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium last Saturday, as per BBC Sport.

Striker Glenn Murray was the only one who could answer back from the Cherries as City winger Raheem Sterling scored a hat trick while striker Wilfried Bony had a brace en route to the one-sided affair.

Meanwhile, the Spurs settled for a goalless draw against Liverpool with their new manager, Jürgen Klopp, at the White Hart Lane also last Saturday, as reported by SkySports.

The Reds started the game with high intensity, seemingly invigorated by the changing of their head coach, attacking Tottenham's defense from all angles.

But the Lilywhites are not going to be bullied in their home turf as they fought back strongly before the first half ended. The second half is an exchange of chances for both squads as the Spurs' Harry Kane and the Reds' Emre Can traded shots on goal to no avail.

It was the second straight drawn game for Mauricio Pochettino's men and they would like to grab the whole three points next when they face Bournemouth this weekend.

The prediction is a 2-0 win for Tottenham.

Bournemouth starting lineup (4-4-1-1 formation): Federici; Daniels, Francis, Cook, Distin; Smith, Ritchie, Gosling, Surman; Murray; O'Kane

Tottenham Hotspur starting lineup (4-2-3-1 formation): Lloris; Walker, Rose, Vertonghen, Alderweireld; Lamela, Eriksen; Alli, Dembélé, Chadli; Kane
