Newly-promoted club and Football League Championship winner AFC Bournemouth (1-0-2, 3 points) will go for a second straight victory in their first Premier League season as it host one of the league-leaders, Leicester City FC (2-1-0, 7 points), at their home field of Vitality Stadium on Saturday, August 29.
The Cherries, who won the Sky Bet Championship last season against Watford FC, clinched their first-ever English Premier League victory in a high-scoring 4-3 game against West Ham United FC on the road last week.
Striker Callum Wilson completed a hat trick to lead Boscombe to the organization's historic win after losing their first two EPL games, as reported by BBC Sport.
Manager Eddie Howe hopes to carry the momentum against a tough Foxes eleven, who have yet to lose a game in the early weeks of Premier League plays.
However, the Blue Army was coming off a 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur at the King Power Stadium in their last game, as per Bleacher Report.
Leicester midfielder Riyad Mahrez traded goals with Spurs substitute forward Dele Alli in the 81st and 82nd-minute marks to help preserve the Foxes unbeaten run.
Mahrez is Claudio Ranieri's best player in the season so far as he scored his fourth goal in three games.
Prediction: Leicester City wins, 2-0. Ranieri's dream season continues in this match against Bournemouth.
Bournemouth starting lineup (4-4-2 formation): Boruc; Elphick, Daniels, Francis, Cook; O'Kane, Gradel, Surman, Ritchie; Wilson, King
Leicester City starting lineup (4-4-2 formation): Schmeichel; Morgan, de Laet, Huth, Schlupp; Albrighton, Mahrez, King, Drinkwater; Vardy, Okazaki
