Latest Tottenham vs Bournemouth team information
Just 20 minutes after returning from a knee injury on Thursday night, Tottenham striker and former Bournemouth man Dominic Solanke was forced off after a heavy collision with AZ Alkmaar goalkeeper Rome Jayden Owusu-Oduro.
However, coach Ange Postecoglou reassured on Friday that it was just a knock to the lower back and nothing serious. He hopes Solanke will be fit to face his former team, but his ability to start is still uncertain.
In defence, centre-back duo Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero could be given a chance after being benched in the Netherlands game. Ben Davies remains in the squad, while Dejan Kulusevski (foot), Richarlison (calf) and Radu Dragusin (knee) are still unavailable.
Bournemouth are also set to welcome back a key centre-back, but not for the upcoming game. Ilya Zabarnyi is still serving a suspension and will miss the final game after his red card in the Premier League defeat to Wolves.
Zabarnyi will continue to watch from the stands, along with injured players Enes Unal (knee), Marcos Senesi (thigh), Julian Araujo (thigh) and Adam Smith (calf). However, coach Andoni Iraola has not ruled out the possibility of Ryan Christie (groin) being available, as he revealed he will assess the player's fitness before kick-off.
Bournemouth are likely to retain much of the same squad that beat Wolves in the FA Cup, with Justin Kluivert set to return to the starting line-up as he continues his impressive scoring form, with 10 Premier League away goals this season.

Latest Tottenham vs Bournemouth football commentary
After 90 minutes of European competition on Thursday night, Ange Postecoglou may no longer be able to maintain his trophy-winning record in his second year in charge. Tottenham were disappointing at the AFAS Stadion, losing 1-0 to AZ Alkmaar.
Lucas Bergvall's own goal, after a foul, helped the Dutch side to avenge their 1-0 group stage defeat to Spurs. This defeat followed a similar defeat to Manchester City in the Premier League, where Erling Haaland scored the only goal to give the reigning champions all three points.
The defeat to Man City ended Tottenham's three-game winning streak in the Premier League, pushing them down to 13th in the table.
Postecoglou may think injuries have had a big impact on the team, but in reality, a drop in form was the main reason for their defeat to AZ. More worryingly, home ground is no longer a solid support for Spurs.
The defeat to Man City ended Tottenham's poor run of results at home, with just one win in their last nine Premier League games and six defeats. If they fall again on Sunday, they will have suffered eight home defeats for the first time in a 38-game Premier League season.
On the other side of the front line, Bournemouth still have a chance to compete for the title this season after overcoming Wolves in the fifth round of the FA Cup on penalties.
Andoni Iraola and his students took advantage of the extra man when Matheus Cunha was sent off late in extra time to take the match to a penalty shootout, where Matt Doherty and Boubacar Traoré failed to convert, helping Bournemouth qualify for the quarter-finals.
However, their reward is a tough test against title contenders Manchester City in the last eight. However, victory over Wolves is still an important morale booster, especially in the context of Bournemouth's struggles in the Premier League with three defeats in their last four matches, including two in a row.
Defeats to Liverpool, Wolves and most recently Brighton have left Bournemouth seventh in the table, four points off the Champions League places, but Justin Kluivert's consolation goal against Brighton extended their Premier League away scoring streak to 10 games.
If they continue this impressive form, Bournemouth have the chance to complete a double against Tottenham for the first time in their history, having beaten Spurs 1-0 at Vitality Stadium in December. However, history is not in their favour, as Bournemouth have lost six of their last seven Premier League visits to Tottenham. This will be an opportunity for Spurs to regain confidence and end their poor run of form at home.
