Eddie Howe faces familiar Newcastle United challenge ahead of Premier League clash vs Bournemouth

Eddie Howe knows that his Newcastle United team have to be more clinical when they face Bournemouth this weekend, a rallying cry that the Magpies boss has made on several occasions this season.

Callum Wilson's third-minute strike against West Ham was cancelled out by Lucas Paqueta as the points were shared between the Magpies and their opponents. The attention now turns to Bournemouth this weekend, with Howe returning to the Vitality for the first time since his departure in 2020.

Gary O'Neil's men are without a win since the World Cup break and Newcastle will be looking to pile on the misery for the south coast team. The two sides have already come up against each other twice this season; once in the Carabao Cup, a 1-0 win to set up a quarter-final clash with Leicester and the other during a disappointing 1-1 draw in the Premier League back in September.
