Comments:

League position: 14th Josh King became the first AFC Bournemouth player to score a first-half goal against West Bromwich Albion in all competitions since current Cherries manager Eddie Howe in a 1-0 win in the FA Cup in January 1999. They had now already scored three penalties in the Premier League in 2017, all in the opening 20 minutes of games. The Cherries had now lost four consecutive games in the Premier League for a second time (also October / November in 2015).
