Team News: Bournemouth striker Glenn Murray starts against former club Crystal Palace

Glenn Murray has been selected in Bournemouth's starting XI for the Boxing Day Premier League match against his former club Crystal Palace.

The striker spearheads the attack as Eddie Howe names an unchanged lineup, with the Cherries going for a fourth straight win in the top flight.

Alan Pardew, meanwhile, has made two changes to the side that won 2-1 at Stoke last Saturday.

They both come in attack, with Frazier Campbell and Jordon Mutch replacing Connor Wickham and Yannick Bolasie, who are both absent today through injury.

Yohan Cabaye is also back in the matchday squad on the bench after missing out at the Britannia Stadium with a heel problem.

Bournemouth: Boruc; Smith, Francis, Cook, Daniels; Ritchie, Arter, Surman, Gosling, Stanislas; Murray Subs: Federici, Distin, MacDonald, O'Kane, Pugh, Rantie, Kermorgant

Crystal Palace: Hennessey; Ward, Dann, Delaney, Souare; Zaha, McArthur, Ledley, Puncheon; Mutch; Campbell Subs: McCarthy, Kelly, Hangeland, Dymond, Jedinak, Cabaye, Chamakh
