Bournemouth, meanwhile, are still awaiting their first league win under Andoni Iraola. The fixture list has not been kind to the Cherries, who have been beaten by Liverpool and Tottenham since drawing with West Ham on matchday one. Bournemouth have been very active in the transfer market, but with the likes of Tyler Adams and Alex Scott still not fit enough to make their debuts, they need to start picking up points to tide them over.
Brentford vs AFC Bournemouth
It has been a case of no Ivan Toney, no problem for Brentford so far this season! Thomas Frank's side are one of just six Premier League teams to enter matchday four still unbeaten, taking five points from their three games this term, though both of their fixtures on this ground have finished level. The Bees failed with a big-money move for PSV's Johan Bakayoko on deadline day, but with Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbeumo in great form, they will be content with the firepower in their ranks.
