Bournemouth injury, suspension list ahead of first game back

Bournemouth's battle to remain in the Premier League for the 2020-21 campaign will continue on June 20 when they take on an in-form Crystal Palace.

The Cherries are without a victory in their last four league matches and currently sit 18th in the table.

Eddie Howe's side are far from in a terminal position, though, as they are only behind 17th-placed Watford on goal difference, and there are sure to be plenty of twists and turns in the coming weeks.

Bournemouth have not been in action since losing 2-1 at Liverpool on March 7 due to the coronavirus outbreak, which halted the majority of football across the globe.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their first game back against the Eagles on June 20.

Bournemouth have no suspension concerns heading into their next fixture.
