Tottenham vs Bournemouth live stream: How to watch Premier League game online and on TV today, team news

Tottenham had emerged from a mid-season slump but suffered a post-Boxing Day humbling, while Bournemouth have probably been the Premier League's best team for nearly six weeks — and you can watch it live from anywhere with a VPN today.   

The teams are in and Spurs make two changes as Giovani Lo Celso and Rodrigo Bentancur come in for and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and the suspended Dejan Kulusevski. Son Heung-min plays likely his final Premier League game before joining South Korea at the Asian Cup, with Brennan Johnson keeping his spot in the starting XI. Pedro Porro, Emerson Royal, Ben Davies and Destiny Udogie complete the back four. Richarlison starts up front.

Bournemouth make two changes as Lewis Cook returns from injury and winger Luis Sinisterra recalled, with Alex Scott and Antoine Semenyo dropping to the bench. In-form Dominic Solanke continues to lead the line as he seeks a goal in his eighth successive game, with Marcus Tavernier, Justin Kluivert, Ryan Christie and Adam Smith all in from the off. Phil Billing is among the substitutes.

Tottenham had seemed to have overcome their midseason malaise of five games without a win, but their 4-2 defeat at Brighton on Thursday night – in which they were 4-0 down after the hour mark – was a big step backwards. Cristian Romero has joined Micky van der Ven in the treatment room, meaning center-back is a big area of concern, while James Maddison's absence remains keenly felt. They will also soon lose captain Son Heung-min to the Asian Cup, as well as Sarr and Bissouma to the Africa Cup of Nations.

It may have taken Bournemouth until October 28 to record their first win of the season, but the Cherries have more than made up for lost time. Andoni Iraola's side have picked up 23 points from 27 available – including a 3-0 destruction of Manchester United at Old Trafford – to put them knocking on the door of the top half of the table. The Basque boss' high-pressing style has clicked, with 12-goal centre-forward Dominic Solanke in red-hot form.

Bournemouth managed to pull off a surprise at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last season and will hope to continue their stunning recent form.
