Bournemouth can go within a point of opponents West Ham with a win on the south coast.
The Cherries succumbed to a 2-0 loss at Everton last week, and are without a win since mid-December; they sit 12th on 27 points.
West Ham come into this game off the back of an excellent performance and result against Arsenal, but the positive mood has been overshadowed by the lack of clarity surrounding Marko Arnautovic’s future, who is being heavily linked with a move to China. Follow the live action below.

Player to watch…
Felipe Anderson: Slowly but surely, West Ham’s record signing is finding his feet in the Premier League. The 25-year-old is the club’s top scorer with eight goals, and his finishing has been exquisite. If Arnautovic is to leave this month, Anderson’s role in the Hammers’ attack will grow in importance.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace
Roy Hodgson returns to Anfield this afternoon in the knowledge that his side were the last Premier League team to beat Liverpool here.
Can they shock the Premier League leaders again today? Joel Matip returns at the back, alongside James Milner on the right of Liverpool's defence.
Manchester United vs Brighton
Coming off the huge win at Spurs, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Manchester United can move above Arsenal should they better their result today.
Both the home side and visitors Brighton are unchanged for this one. Brighton have never won at Old Trafford...
Newcastle vs Cardiff
A relegation six-pointer on Tyneside. Oumar Niasse comes straight in to the Cardiff team after joining on loan from Everton.
Southampton vs Everton
Victorious with ten men at the King Power last weekend, Ralph Hasenhuttl's Southampton will look to build as they enter a crucial period with a number of games against those around them.
Everton are their opponents today. Marco Silva's team could end the day in seventh if results go their way...
Watford vs Burnley
It is two years since the unfortunate passing of Graham Taylor, and should Javi Gracia and Watford win this afternoon the Spaniard is planning a special tribute to the club's greatest manager.
Burnley are the opponents at Vicarage Road.
James Milner starts at right-back for Liverpool today, with Trent Alexander-Arnold sidelined.
It has been a good day for Alexander-Arnold, however, with the 20-year-old has today putting pen-to-paper on along-term deal at Anfield to commit his future to his boyhood club.
News from Old Trafford, and it will be a late enforced change for Manchester United with Luke Shaw taken ill. Diogo Dalot replaces him in the starting lineup, with Ashley Young presumably switching to left-back.
Five minutes until kick-off around the grounds.
Just before everything gets underway, there is time to praise Crystal Palace for this act of kindness:
Watford 0-0 Burnley, 2 minutes
First chance for Watford, with Tom Heaton doing superbly to deny to deny Gerard Deulofeu after the Spaniard combined with Troy Deeney.
