Huddersfield Town travel to Dean Court today for what is the first home match of the new campaign. In the past week Bournemouth have played two difficult fixtures, the first being a solid 0-0 against Nottingham Forest, and the second being a 1-0 defeat away to West Brom. In both matches Bournemouth displayed solid defensive performances, however Bournemouth are yet to score a goal this season.

AFC Bournemouth Team News:

Bournemouth are still monitoring the fitness of Paul Telfer, who missed the midweek clash with West Brom however he could play a part in todays game. Marvin Bartley still needs to wait a week before he can become involved in any type of physical contact. Danny Hollands has resumed training this week but he still needs to bring his match fitness up to scratch. Perret is likely to rejoin the squad tomorrow.
