Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side are the visitors to the Vitality Stadium as Andoni Iraola looks to start 2026 with three points.
The Cherries are winless in their last ten games with their last win coming in October against Nottingham Forest.
A much-improved performance last time out at Stamford Bridge saw the Cherries claim a point in a 2-2 draw with Chelsea.
Goals from David Brooks and Justin Kluivert inspired a hard-fought performance in a match which the Cherries should have won at the very end with Enes Ünal missing a huge chance.
As for the visitors, they sit at the very top of the Premier League table. They are unbeaten since the start of December and have only conceded 12 goals all season.
Arsenal are coming into this game off the back of a very impressive 4-1 victory at home to Aston Villa.
The Cherries bested the Gunners in both games last season with a 2-0 win at home and a 2-1 win at the Emirates.
Iraola confirmed the availability of Antoine Semenyo, who is looking very likely to become a Manchester City player this month.
Iraola said: "Yes. Antoine is going to play.
“I hope he can be here more time, but I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
On the rumoured move to Manchester City, Iraola added: “There is nothing signed for sure.
“I understand a lot of the noise around, but there is nothing signed. Antoine is our player; I want to keep him for a lot of time.”
Iraola confirmed the unavailability of Ryan Christie and added that Lewis Cook would be assessed to see whether he could feature.
The Cherries also announced the short term signing of veteran goalkeeper Fraser Forster.
The 37-year-old joins after second choice keeper Will Dennis sustained a serious ankle injury in training.
Here is how we think the Cherries will lineup against Arsenal:
