Team news: Three changes for Cherries

AFC Bournemouth boss Scott Parker has made three changes for the fixture against Manchester City this afternoon.

Dominic Solanke and Jordan Zemura are forced to miss out against the reigning champions, with injury and Covid-19 respectively, while Philip Billing drops to the bench.

Jack Stacey, Lewis Cook and Ryan Christie come into the starting line up in their places, making their first start of the 2022/23 season.

New signings Neto and Marcos Senesi are named on the bench at Etihad Stadium, their first experience of English league football.

Jamal Lowe is also named as a substitute, having missed out on the matchday squad last weekend, and will be hoping to make his top flight debut.

Cherries XI: Travers, Smith, Mepham, Lerma, Kelly, Stacey, Cook, Pearson, Tavernier, Christie, Moore.

Bench: Neto, Marcondes, Lowe, Stanislas, Siriki, Hill, Senesi, Billing, Anthony.
