Eddie Howe has suggested that Allan Saint-Maximin is touch and go for the home clash with Crystal Palace this weekend.
The French winger sustained a hamstring injury on a defensive recovery sprint away to Wolves in the 1-1 draw last Sunday and subsequently missed the trip to Anfield in midweek for the agonising 2-1 defeat. But Howe has stated the former Nice man's injury is not serious.
Nevertheless, he will need late fitness checks before a decision is made. Both Ryan Fraser and Jacob Murphy are standing by as back-up.
