Tottenham vs Bournemouth - Premier League: TV channel, team news, lineups and prediction

Tottenham's 2023 concludes on New Year's Eve as they welcome a red-hot Bournemouth to north London.

Gameweek 20 represents the start of the second half of the 2023/24 campaign with these two sides having already faced off back in August. Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison were on the scoresheet in a comfortable 2-0 away win.

The iteration of Andoni Iraola's Bournemouth that rocked up that day paled in comparison to their current resurgent selves. No team has picked up more Premier League points than the Cherries in their last six outings (16).

Given Tottenham's extensive injury list and the importance of many players absent this weekend, you wouldn't put it past Bournemouth to continue their rich vein of form.

Here's 90min's preview of the New Year's Eve clash in N17.

Tottenham team news

Dejan Kulusevski picked up his fifth booking of the season at Brighton and will miss Sunday's game as a result. Thus, Spurs' two scorers in the reverse fixture will be absent on Sunday. James Maddison is poised for a return to action next month.

While there have been positive injury updates regarding Micky van de Ven and Rodrigo Bentancur, both remain sidelined for this one. Cristian Romero is also out injured.

Kulusevski's absence should see Giovani Lo Celso come back into the starting lineup.

Tottenham predicted lineup vs Bournemouth

Tottenham predicted lineup vs Bournemouth (4-3-3): Vicario; Porro, Emerson, Davies, Udogie, Skipp, Lo Celso, Sarr; Johnson, Richarlison, Son.

Bournemouth team news

Ryan Fredericks, Milos Kerkez and Lloyd Kelly all missed the Boxing Day win over Fulham which forced Dango Ouattara into a defensive position. Kerkez is the most likely to return to the fold this weekend.

Hamed Traore is a doubt due to illness, while Darren Randolph and Tyler Adams are long-term absentees.

Bournemouth predicted lineup vs Tottenham

Bournemouth predicted lineup vs Tottenham (4-2-3-1): Neto; Smith, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez; Scott, Billing; Semenyo, Christie, Tavernier; Solanke.

Tottenham vs Bournemouth score prediction

Bournemouth tasted success on this ground last season, and they're primed for another victory on Sunday. They're currently playing as well as anyone in the Premier League, with the pressing ideals Iraola was famed for in Spain finally coming to pass.

Ange Postecoglou spoke about his side's fatigue in the wake of Thursday's defeat at Brighton, and there's no doubt his side are currently running on fumes. However, given that they are at home, we should see an uptick in energy this weekend.

Thus, Spurs might find a way to grind their way to a point.

Prediction: Tottenham 2-2 Bournemouth

Image
Matchday six in CONMEBOL World Cup 2026 qualification was controversial, to say the least. There were wins for Colombia, Uruguay and Ecuador over Paraguay, Bolivia and Chile respectively, but the real drama came at the Maracanã, where Brazil hosted arch-rivals Argentina. Messi attempts to defuse crowd trouble in Rio Kick-off was delayed by crowd trouble in Rio de Janeiro, with local police charing at away fans after fighting broke out between rival supporters in a section of the stadium. After the teams had taken to the field, Albiceleste captain Lionel Messi and his teammates went over in an attempt to defuse the situation, with the Inter Miami star later revealing players were worried family members had been caught up in the trouble. After Argentina had returned to the dressing room and subsequently reappeared, the match eventually got underway with a delay of around 30 minutes. And yet more misery was heaped on Brazil, who lost their first ever qualifier on home soil and have

Chelsea among Premier League clubs taking interest in Ibrahim Adel

Chelsea are one of a number of Premier League clubs keeping tabs on Egyptian winger Ibrahim Adel, 90min understands. The 22-year-old has long been regarded as one of African football's brightest young talents, and backed up that reputation after being named Player of the Tournament at the recent Under-23 Africa Cup of Nations. Adel, who currently plays for Pyramids in his homeland and has been capped four times by Egypt's senior team, was targeted by Belgian giants Anderlecht earlier this year, but a number of Premier League clubs have also been monitoring his progress. Indeed, 90min revealed in September last year that fellow countryman Mohamed Salah had advised Liverpool to keep an eye on Adel's development, though any move to England was off the table at the time because of issues obtaining a work permit.
