Latest Tottenham vs Bournemouth team information
Yves Bissouma has yet to play this season due to minor injury and disciplinary issues. He was linked with a move to Galatasaray, but the move is in danger of collapsing due to fitness concerns. However, the Mali midfielder is certain to remain absent, along with Dejan Kulusevski (knee), Radu Dragusin (cruciate ligament), James Maddison (cruciate ligament), Kota Takai (foot) and Bryan Gil (knee). Destiny Udogie (knee) and Manor Solomon (calf) remain doubtful.
Frank is likely to stick to the winning formula, with Richarlison and Johnson both aiming for history – possibly becoming the first Spurs players to score or assist in each of the opening three games of a Premier League season.
For Bournemouth, right-back Julian Araujo is suspended for one match after receiving a red card in the League Cup. Adam Smith will replace him. In addition, Enes Unal and Lewis Cook are also absent until after the national team training camp due to knee injuries.
Coach Iraola will return to his familiar attack of Tavernier, Antoine Semenyo, David Brooks and Evanilson, after experimenting with Ben Doak, Amine Adli and Eli Junior Kroupi in midweek.

Latest Tottenham vs Bournemouth football commentary
Tax, and Tottenham winning at the Etihad – it seemed inevitable. The early game last Saturday saw both teams get off to a perfect start, but the coolness Man City showed against Wolves disappeared when they returned home.
Brennan Johnson's stunning opener was followed by a horrendous error from James Trafford, who passed the ball straight to Joao Palhinha for Spurs' second. Frank's resilient defence held firm in the second half, leaving Erling Haaland and co.
Joining the elite group of coaches, Frank – who led Brentford to defeat Man City at the Etihad in 2022 – now becomes the third manager in history to beat Pep Guardiola away from home with two different teams, after Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte.
Currently just behind rivals Arsenal on goal difference, Spurs will move top of the table if they can get at least a point against Bournemouth, although fans will likely see a draw as a defeat given Frank’s dream start. A win would see Tottenham open the Premier League season with three consecutive wins for the fourth time in their history, and only once before have they managed to do that with three clean sheets – under Nuno Espirito Santo in 2021-22.
Opponents Bournemouth also found some joy in winning 1-0 against Wolves thanks to an early goal from Marcus Tavernier and the advantage of having Toti sent off. However, the joy was short-lived as they were knocked out of the League Cup by Brentford just days later, with goals in either half from Fabio Carvalho and Igor Thiago.
The early exit has closed off a potential route to Europe, but Bournemouth can still take confidence from their six-game unbeaten run away to London sides in the Premier League – five of which have been draws. They have also failed to score once in their last 16 away games in the top flight.
Last season, Bournemouth won four points from two matches against Tottenham, but once threw away a 2-0 lead at Spurs to draw 2-2, with Son Heung-min scoring a late penalty equalizer.
