The Premier League is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Andoni Iraola's Bournemouth lock horns with a struggling Sheffield United side in an important clash at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday.

Bournemouth vs Sheffield United Preview

Sheffield United are currently rooted to the bottom of the Premier League standings and failed to make their mark this season. The away side slumped to a damaging 6-0 defeat at the hands of Arsenal last week and will need to work hard to bounce back this weekend.

Bournemouth, on the other hand, are in 13th place in the league table at the moment and have improved after a slow start to their season. The Cherries eased past Burnley by a comfortable 2-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
