Neto - Pulls off five saves Neto conceded a goal, performed five saves and two clearing punches in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Brighton.

Impact Neto showed confidence and made a series of huge saves that kept the conceded goal count down to just one on Saturday. He has regained his position as regular starting keeper for the Cherries (this was his third start in a row) and will likely be a difference maker for Bournemouth as they try and leverage their signings from the January transfer window to fight their way out of the relegation zone. From 11 appearances (all starts) he has conceded 12 (1.1 per game), pulled off 34 saves and delivered two clean sheets.

Philip Billing - Fired shot-on-target in loss Billing attempted a shot-on-target and executed two crosses (one accurate) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat at the hands of Brighton.

Impact Billing put in a bright, confident performance on Saturday. He was one of the Cherries more active playmakers contributing to both defensive and attacking initiatives. He was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet with his shot-at-goal which was a well-taken strike from outside the penalty area, He was subbed after 66 for Joe Rothwell. The Dane missed Bournemouth's last EPL game due to a slight muscle injury, he seems to be back on top form and the substitution was no doubt to ensure he was eased back into competitive action. From 20 appearances (18 starts) he has scored four and produced an assist.

Impact Billing has had two weeks to get back his health, though it's still unknown if he'll be ready to start.

Impact Tavernier hasn't played since the World Cup break because of this injury, so while he's back on the grass, that doesn't mean he'll be thrown into the starting XI following a hamstring injury.
