Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Ipswich Town FC get us underway at Vitality Stadium.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jens Cajuste, as he is very good at scoring at Vitality Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 10' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 15' AFC Bournemouth are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against Ipswich Town FC's 4-2-3-1 shape.

- 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Nathan Broadhead made 379 appearances and scored 40 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 57' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Dango Ouattara suffering a number of foals already.
