Alex Scott and Justin Kluivert are both set to miss the visit of Sturm Graz on Thursday. Lewis Cook was named on the bench against Chelsea and could start in the Europa League. No further changes are expected from Marco Rose in midweek. Bournemouth were hammered by Chelsea on their trip to Stamford Bridge on Saturday, losing 5-1 to Xabi Alonso's side. Since beating Real Sociedad 2-1 on the road in their Europa League opener, the Cherries have suffered back-to-back defeats against elite opposition. Sturm Graz travel to the Vitality Stadium looking to build on a goalless draw against Rennes in their competition opener. Since then, the Austrian side were beaten 3-0 by RB Salzburg and then responded with a 2-0 away victory against Austria Wien.

The mounting relegation pressure in the Premier League has weighed heavily on Bournemouth lately. The side has failed to secure a single win across their opening six top-flight fixtures, picking up just three points from three draws and three losses to sit 18th in the league table, mired in a deeply frustrating poor run of form. Their upcoming Europa League home tie against Austrian Bundesliga side Sturm Graz will not come at a better time for the visitors. Sturm Graz has demonstrated far more consistent competitive edge in recent outings, with their sharp, high-efficiency attacking output standing out as their biggest strength. The biggest variable for this fixture will largely boil down to whether the away side can keep up their proven smooth attacking rhythm on the European road. The glaring flaws across both attacking and defensive phases of Bournemouth’s recent play are clearly reflected in their latest match stats, with their leaky backline being the most prominent issue.

I’ve been tracking Bournemouth’s wildly fluctuating form in the Premier League, and their recent run has exposed critical flaws in their defensive setup ahead of their upcoming European fixture. Across their last 10 outings across all competitions, they have recorded 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses, but their recent 1-7 away thrashing by Chelsea perfectly showcases their tactical disorganization when pressed intensely by opponents. They fell two goals behind before half time in that game, and only managed 1 corner kick in total compared to Chelsea’s 7. Their underperformance in set piece scenarios was also evident in their prior 0-1 home loss to Liverpool, where their corner count stayed at a very low level. Their visitors Sturm Graz, meanwhile, are currently on a totally different competitive rhythm heading into this Europa League tie. Bournemouth have looked a completely different side on the Europa League stage so far this campaign. They claimed a 2-1 away win over Real Sociedad,

Al-Faisaly will welcome Al-Nassr to Al Majma'ah Sport City on Friday as the two sides meet with contrasting ambitions in the Saudi Pro League. The hosts currently sit 14th in the standings with seven points from nine matches, having recorded just one victory and scored 10 goals so far this season. After a difficult opening period without a win in their first seven games, Giovanni Solinas's side have shown signs of improvement by collecting four points from their last two outings. As a newly returned top-flight club, Al-Faisaly are primarily focused on securing their place in the division, making every home fixture an important opportunity to gain valuable points. However, their defensive record remains a concern, with 17 goals conceded and no clean sheets in their last three meetings with Al-Nassr. Despite these challenges, previous home victories over their opponents could provide some encouragement as they prepare for a demanding test. Al-Nassr arrive in strong form as they

Go Ahead Eagles will welcome SC Telstar to De Adelaarshorst in Deventer on Friday for an Eredivisie encounter between two teams eager to return to winning ways. The hosts currently sit ninth in the standings with 11 points from nine matches, having recorded two wins, five draws and two defeats. Under head coach Joseph Oosting, Go Ahead Eagles have struggled to turn competitive performances into victories, with four of their previous five league matches ending in draws. Their disappointing run continued last weekend with a 4-1 defeat to local rivals PEC Zwolle, exposing weaknesses in their defensive organisation. Despite these setbacks, the team have demonstrated attacking potential, particularly through Soren Tengstedt, who has scored five league goals this season. Playing at home offers an opportunity to regain confidence, but Oosting will need his players to show greater defensive discipline and make better use of their scoring opportunities.

Vitoria de Guimaraes will host newly promoted Maritimo at the Estadio Dom Afonso Henriques on Friday night, with both teams eager to turn recent cup victories into improved performances in the Primeira Liga. Vitoria have endured a disappointing start to the 2026-27 campaign, collecting just five points from eight matches and sitting 15th in the standings, only one point above the relegation zone. Under head coach Tiago Margarido, the team have struggled to find consistency, recording just one league victory while losing five times. Their biggest weakness has been a lack of attacking efficiency, having scored only five goals and failed to find the net in half of their league fixtures. A recent 1-0 victory over ACDR Lamelas in the Portuguese Cup has provided some encouragement, however, and the return of Gustavo Silva could strengthen their attacking options. With home advantage on their side, Vitoria will be determined to rediscover their confidence and secure a result that eases the gr
