West Bromwich Albion friendly announced

AFC Bournemouth's latest pre-season fixture has been confirmed against Championship side West Bromwich Albion.

The Cherries will make the trip to the Midlands to face the Baggies at the Hawthorns on Friday 26th July with an 8pm kick-off.

The club have already confirmed that Eddie Howe's side will take on Lazio at Vitality Stadium and Brentford at Griffin Park as the first-team's pre-season schedule continues to take shape.

Ticket information for the game will be released in due course.

Albion finished fourth in the EFL Championship last season, narrowly losing in the play-offs to Midlands rivals Aston Villa.

The last time the Cherries faced the Throstles was in March 2018 when Junior Stanislas' superb free-kick in the last minute secured a late win in the Premier League at Vitality Stadium.
