Bournemouth welcome south coast rivals Brighton to the Vitality Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Under the interim stewardship of Gary O'Neil, the Cherries have recovered from a trio of defeats to take four points from their last two matches, overturning a 2-0 half-time deficit against Nottingham Forest last weekend.

Brighton bounce into the weekend sitting in the lofty slot of fourth spot, claiming four victories from their opening six matches, replicating their club-record start to a top-flight season which they recorded just last term.

Here's everything you need to know about the meeting between these clubs.

Summer arrival Joe Rothwell has gotten back out on the grass but is still building his fitness after a thigh injury hampered his assimilation to life in Dorset. Junior Stanislas has been at Bournemouth for eight years but is also a doubt with a groin problem.

While David Brooks continues his recovery from a long-term layoff after undergoing cancer treatment, Ben Pearson is likely to be sidelined with a knee injury, though no timescale has been provided yet.

Bournemouth vs Brighton score prediction

In recent seasons, Brighton have often struggled to convert the chances they create. However, the Seagulls rattled in five goals against Leicester City last weekend, the most they have ever scored in a top-flight match across their 121-year history.

If Potter's team can combine a clinical edge with their consistently high calibre of performance, a Bournemouth side experiencing a new manager bounce may not be the only opponent Brighton get the better of this term.

Prediction: Bournemouth 0-2 Brighton
