Cardiff vs Bournemouth

Bournemouth return to Premier League action on Saturday night when they head to Wales to take on Cardiff.

Cardiff, who lost 2-1 at Arsenal in midweek, after third bottom of the league.

The Bluebirds only have 19 points, while they are three points behind Southampton and Crystal Palace in the race to beat the drop.

Bournemouth are 12th in the division on 30 points.

Callum Wilson & David Brooks injury updates

Callum Wilson missed the Chelsea match through injury.

Bournemouth also lost David Brooks to injury in the second half against Chelsea.

Brooks was subbed out the game in the 68th minute as Jordon Ibe was introduced off the bench.

After the win over the Pensioners, Eddie Howe gave updates on his two injured players:

Callum Wilson just had a minor knee operation to clean out the knee. We don’t think he’ll be out long, maybe three to four weeks.

As for David Brooks, I need to speak to him and the physios to find the extent of his injury.
