Dominic Solanke Injury Could Rule Him Out of Bournemouth vs Arsenal Clash

Bournemouth’s routine 2-0 victory at Stoke City in the Carabao Cup was marred by a late injury to star striker Dominik Solanke that could see him miss the weekend clash with Arsenal.

Solanke, who recently signed a new contract with the Cherries, has started the season in fine form with four goals in eight games in all competitions. His latest came in the second half of Wednesday’s game against Stoke as he opened the scoring at the Vitality Stadium having come off the bench at half-time.

Joe Rothwell added the second – his first goal for the club – as Andoni Iraola’s side progressed to the fourth round but the result was soured somewhat when Solanke limped off with an ankle injury late on.

Solanke’s Injury Could Keep Him Out of Bournemouth vs Arsenal

‘Dom has played well,’ said Iraola, of his star striker after the game. ‘We needed a change of energy and the whole of the team had a different attitude in the second half. Unfortunately, he couldn’t finish the game, that was probably the worst part of the evening. We will see tomorrow if the ankle is swollen or not but we have a very tight schedule so it will be tough for him to play at the weekend.’

Solanke has featured in every game this season and made his impact of the bench on Wednesday with a cute finish on the turn in the 51st minute. The 26-year-old can now look forward to a fourth-round tie against his former side Liverpool after the draw pitted the two Premier League sides together.

Bournemouth vs Arsenal Preview

However, there will be a more pressing concern around the fitness of Solanke, with Bournemouth set to host Arsenal on Saturday. The Cherries are still yet to win in the league this season and currently sit in 16th place with three points from their opening six games.

Arsenal have had a mixed start to their campaign and are currently ninth in the table with nine points from their opening six games. The Gunners have been in good form of late though, winning three of their last four games in all competitions.

The two sides have met twice since Bournemouth were promoted to the Premier League in 2015, with Arsenal winning both games. The last meeting between the two sides saw Arsenal run out 3-1 winners at the Emirates Stadium in October 2019.

Conclusion

It remains to be seen whether Solanke will be fit enough to feature against Arsenal this weekend, but it is looking increasingly unlikely. Bournemouth will be hoping to get their first win of the season against Mikel Arteta’s side, but they will have to do so without their star striker if he is unable to recover from his ankle injury in time.
