Bournemouth failed to protect their one-goal lead as they fell to a 2-1 defeat at Preston North End last Saturday.

Prior to that, the Cherries were on a three-game winning streak, scoring seven goals and conceding three in that time.

The defeat saw Bournemouth drop to third place in the EFL Championship standings after claiming 61 points from 32 games.

They have now lost each of their most recent five games across all competitions, while managing just one draw from their last seven games.
