Bournemouth will be hoping to continue their good form under interim head coach Gary O'Neil when they face off against Newcastle United at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon.
The Cherries have picked up four points from their last two games, drawing 0-0 with Wolves and winning 3-2 against Nottingham Forest in a thrilling contest at the City Ground.
O'Neil was installed as Bournemouth boss following the sacking of former Newcastle midfielder Scott Parker, who was sacked after the Cherries dismal 9-0 defeat to Liverpool at the end of August.

Bournemouth's interim boss has an almost fully fit squad to choose from, with only Joe Rothwell, Ben Pearson and long-term absentee David Brooks set to miss out on the clash against Eddie Howe's Newcastle.
Junior Stanislas could be set to return to the fold against the Magpies too after O'Neil revealed the winger was back in training following a spell on the sidelines.
"Junior Stanislas has trained well and has been on the grass for a few days," said O'Neil in midweek.
"It's good to have him back and he has big quality."
So far under O'Neil, Bournemouth have played 4-4-2 during his two games in charge. Under Parker, they started the campaign playing a back three before switching to a four against Liverpool, which ultimately cost him his job.
The 3-2 come from behind win over Forest saw Bournemouth bring Ryan Fredericks and Jaidon Anthony on off the bench to supreme effect, with the duo helping O'Neil and co overcome a 2-0 half-time deficit. Their performances could mean O'Neil rewards them with a start against Newcastle at St James' Park.
Predicted Bournemouth XI to face Newcastle United (4-4-2): Neto, Fredericks, Mepham, Kelly, Zemura, Tavernier, Cook, Lerma, Anthony, Billing, Solanke
