Bournemouth will have the opportunity to equal a club record in Sunday's Premier League clash with Fulham.

The Cherries are sitting in sixth place in the Premier League table after winning eight, drawing five and losing five of their 18 league games this season.

Andoni Iraola's side have taken 14 points from a possible 18 since suffering a narrow 2-1 defeat against Brighton & Hove Albion on November 23.

They followed that result with three consecutive wins against Wolverhampton Wanderers, Tottenham Hotspur and Ipswich Town, before they played out a 1-1 home draw against West Ham United.

The Cherries went on to enjoy a memorable outing against Man United, producing an impressive away performance to claim a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford for the second year in a row.

Bournemouth out to equal club record in Fulham clash

Bournemouth were unable to make it back-to-back wins in their recent clash with Crystal Palace, playing out a goalless draw at the Vitality Stadium on Boxing Day.

While that may have been an underwhelming result, the goalless affair extended Bournemouth's unbeaten streak to six matches, leaving them on the brink of equalling a club record.

The South-coast side are now just one game away from equalling the club's longest unbeaten run in the Premier League.

Bournemouth current record stands at seven Premier League matches without defeat after previously achieving the feat in 2017-18 and 2023-24.

Last season, the Cherries recorded six victories and one draw in a seven-game unbeaten which included a 3-0 home victory over Fulham on Boxing Day.

Kluivert to miss Craven Cottage visit

If Bournemouth are to equal the club record, they will have to do it without the services of Netherlands international Justin Kluivert.

The 25-year-old will serve a one-match ban after receiving his fifth yellow card of the Premier League season in the goalless draw with Palace.

Bournemouth are also having to cope with a number of injury absentees, including Kluivert's fellow attackers Marcus Tavernier and Luis Sinisterra.

They are joined on the sidelines by midfielder Alex Scott as well as the defensive trio of Julian Araujo, Marcos Senesi and Adam Smith.
