Eddie Howe said: “Jolington looks to have a hamstring injury and it would be a big blow if we lost him. Wilson has a slight hamstring problem and we hope to see him back before the international break, but there are no guarantees. Botman has a knee problem and I don’t think we will see him before the international break, hopefully we will see him soon after the international break. Willock is injured too, so it’s a difficult moment for us. That’s the way it has been for us this season, there will be physical demands on us and we have to be resilient for what’s coming and we just hope these players get back as soon as possible.”

Speaking about Gordon taking the card, Eddie Howe said: “It is absolutely fatal for us because Gordon has been in good form. He’s been excellent and has brought a lot to the team, so you don’t want to take him out of the team for a while, especially considering he’s in a good rhythm at the moment. Then there is the international break and he will not be able to play for a while. It was a big blow, it was probably an unnecessary yellow card.”
