Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola will be forced into an attacking alteration for Monday's Premier League showdown with West Ham United at the Vitality Stadium.
The Cherries head coach has lost Marcus Tavernier for a matter of weeks due to a hamstring injury, but thankfully for the hosts, they have a ready-made and inspired replacement raring to go.
Indeed, Dango Ouattara was the mastermind behind a brilliant Bournemouth comeback in their 2-1 win at Ipswich Town last weekend, coming up with a goal and assist in the final 10 minutes at Portman Road.
The 22-year-old will surely be a straight swap for Tavernier in the final third, which should also comprise Evanilson, Antoine Semenyo and Justin Kluivert; Enes Unal's equaliser last weekend will surely not be enough for the Turkish striker to force his way in.
Iraola is also expected to have Tyler Adams back at his disposal after resting the American last weekend, but he has no reason to break up the established pairing of Ryan Christie and Lewis Cook.
The same can also be said of the back five, as Kepa Arrizabalaga is shielded by Adam Smith, Ilya Zabarnyi, Milos Kerkez and Dean Huijsen, the latter of whom is filling in for Marcos Senesi following his thigh operation.
Senesi will be out for a few months after his surgery, joining Tavernier, Alex Scott (knee), Luis Sinisterra (hamstring) and Julian Araujo (hamstring) in the treatment room.
Bournemouth possible starting lineup:
Kepa; Smith, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, Kerkez; Christie, Cook; Semenyo, Kluivert, Ouattara; Evanilson
