Bournemouth host Everton in the Premier League this afternoon…

Bournemouth will be looking to kickstart their season with a win over Everton today, and Eddie Howe has made some changes.

The Cherries go with Aaron Ramsdale in goal, with Jack Stacey and Diego Rico coming in as full backs, flanking centre backs Steve Cook and Nathan Ake.

Lewis Cook comes into midfield alongside Philip Billing, with Harry Wilson and Josh King seemingly playing as wide men today.

Dominic Solanke also comes in, partnering Callum Wilson in attack, meaning Ryan Fraser has been dropped to the bench this afternoon.

Chris Mepham is also named as a substitute, alongside Artur Boruc, Jack Compson, Jefferson Lerma, Andrew Surman and Jordon Ibe.

Meanwhile, Everton go with Jordan Pickford in goal, behind a settled back four of Seamus Coleman, Michael Keane, Yerry Mina and Lucas Digne.

Fabian Delph partners Morgan Schneiderlin in midfield, with confusion over Andre Gomes given that he isn’t in the squad at all today.

Alex Iwobi and Richarlison keep their places out wide after goals against Wolves, with Gylfi Sigurdsson supporting lone striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

That means Moise Kean is only on the bench, alongside Maarten Stekelenburg, Mason Holgate, Djibril Sidibe, Tom Davies, Bernard and Theo Walcott.
