Preview: Bournemouth Vs Southampton
The Cherries & the Saints both find themselves in the bottom half of the points table after a poor start to the new season:
Bournemouth have endured a mixed start to the Premier League campaign gathering just five points from their first five outings. Although, Cherries have shown plenty of promise under Andoni Iraola , their inability to convert the chances is costing them the points. The departure of Dominic Solanke has left a huge void in the team which for now seems to be very big shoes to fill. Hopefully, they can secure a win here against a struggling Saints side who are yet to win a game this season.
Meanwhile, Southampton have found life difficult in the Premier League after being promoted from the Championship. Things are not looking good for the Saints who are leaking goals at the back while failing to score consistently on the other end. Russell Martin will have plenty to think about heading into this fixture. They find themselves at the bottom of the table with just one point and if things don’t go their way the pressure with mount on Martin.

About Premier League:
History
The Premier League is a private company wholly owned by its 20 Member Clubs who make up the League at any one time.
Each individual club is independent, working within the rules of football, as defined by the Premier League, The FA, UEFA and FIFA, as well as being subject to English and European law.
Each of the 20 clubs are a Shareholder in the Premier League. Consultation is at the heart of the Premier League and Shareholder meetings are the ultimate decision-making forum for Premier League policy and are held at regular intervals during the course of the season.
The Premier League AGM takes place at the close of each season, at which time the relegated clubs transfer their shares to the clubs promoted into the Premier League from the Football League Championship.
Clubs have the opportunity to propose new rules or amendments at the Shareholder meeting. Each Member Club is entitled to one vote and all rule changes and major commercial contracts require the support of at least a two-thirds vote, or 14 clubs, to be agreed.
The Premier League Rule Book, contained within the Handbook (Download: Premier League Handbook; PDF 18.2MB), serves as a contract between the League, the Member Clubs and one another, defining the structure and running of the competition.
Any serious breach of the Rule Book results in an independent three-person tribunal sitting to hear the case, ascertain guilt and set the punishment, which can range from fines to points deductions and, in extreme cases, expulsion from the competition (this has never happened in the history of the Premier League).
At the Premier League's AGM in June 2022, an Owners' Charter was agreed by Clubs. The Owners and Directors of the Member Clubs are custodians of those organizations and will uphold the spirit of the Charter's commitments.
