The problem for Bournemouth isn't just that Spurs have a new manager and have their first Premier League game for him at home, the Cherries will also be without Josh King for a second week and up front they are likely to be without Dominic Solanke as well.
I just hope that Eddie still plays 4-4-2 rather than playing with three at the back after the terrible performance last weekend. Bournemouth need to pay to their strengths and not worry about the opposition overly. If Bournemouth can get players to support Callum Wilson they may have a chance of an upset.
Who should Eddie bring into the side? I'd play Harry Wilson in behind Callum up front, in the number 10 position. Fraser has hopefully overcome his dead leg and can play on the left while Arnaut Danjuma has done enough for me to start on the right.
The only bit that worries me is that Eddie Howe doesn't have many options to change games on the bench. Dan Gosling is a good option to have as he always gives everything, but if David Brooks is not available, we could be seeing Kevin Kilkenny or Alex Dobre on the bench as attacking options.
Bournemouth certainly need a big performance. With last week still fresh in the memory I think the players will be playing with gritted teeth not to concede early and this is perhaps the biggest away text AFCB have had so far this season. If they can get something at Spurs it would really restore some faith in the players.

While Lerma can be restored in central midfield, I'd like to see Lewis Cook keep his position, Philip Billing is serving his match ban and Dan Gosling will perhaps be on the bench. The back four should then be familiar to everyone with Rico, Aké, Steve Cook and Adam Smith while Ramsdale is the first name on the sheet in goal.
