Latest Tottenham vs Bournemouth team news
Yves Bissouma has yet to play this season due to a minor injury and disciplinary issues. He was reportedly close to moving to Galatasaray, but the deal is at risk of falling through due to fitness concerns. However, the Malian midfielder is certain to remain absent, along with Dejan Kulusevski (knee), Radu Dragusin (anterior cruciate ligament), James Maddison (anterior cruciate ligament), Kota Takai (foot), and Bryan Gil (knee). Destiny Udogie (knee) and Manor Solomon (calf) are still doubtful.
Frank is likely to maintain his winning formula, with Richarlison and Johnson both aiming for a historic milestone – potentially becoming the first Spurs players to score or assist in all three opening games of a Premier League season.
On the Bournemouth side, right-back Julian Araujo is suspended for one match after receiving a red card in the League Cup. Adam Smith will replace him directly. In addition, Enes Unal and Lewis Cook will also be absent until after the international break due to knee injuries.
Coach Iraola will return to his familiar attacking lineup of Tavernier, Antoine Semenyo, David Brooks, and Evanilson, after experimenting with Ben Doak, Amine Adli, and Eli Junior Kroupi in the midweek match.

Latest football match prediction: Tottenham vs Bournemouth
Taxes, and Tottenham winning at the Etihad – it seemed like an unavoidable "destiny." Last Saturday's early match saw both teams have perfect opening games, but the coolness Man City showed against Wolves vanished when they returned to their home ground.
Brennan Johnson's stunning opening goal was followed by a terrible mistake from James Trafford, who passed the ball straight to Joao Palhinha, allowing him to score Spurs' second goal. Frank's resilient defense held firm in the second half, rendering Erling Haaland and his teammates completely helpless.
Joining the ranks of "elite" coaches, Frank – who led Brentford to victory over 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 trailing rivals Arsenal only on goal difference, Spurs will climb to the top of the table if they secure at least one point against Bournemouth, although fans would likely consider a draw a failure given Frank's dream start. A win would see Tottenham open the Premier League season with three consecutive wins for the fourth time in history, a feat they've only achieved once before, along with three clean sheets – under Nuno Espirito Santo in the 2021-22 season.
Bournemouth also recently rediscovered their winning form with a 1-0 victory over Wolves thanks to an early goal from Marcus Tavernier and a man advantage after Toti was sent off. However, their joy was short-lived as they were knocked out of the League Cup by Brentford just days later, with goals from Fabio Carvalho and Igor Thiago split in half.
Their early exit closed off a potential path to Europe, but Bournemouth can still be confident thanks to their recent run of six unbeaten away games against London teams in the Premier League – although five of those were draws. They have also only failed to score once in their last 16 away games in England's top flight.
Last season, Bournemouth earned four points in their two encounters with Tottenham, but once squandered a 2-0 lead at Spurs' ground, conceding a 2-2 draw, with Son Heung-min scoring the equalizer from the penalty spot in the final minutes.
