Comments:

League position: 14th This was Middlesbrough's first win in their last eight Premier League games (lost four). This was the first time that Boro had scored more than one goal in their last seven home games. Six of Middlesbrough's nine league goals this season to date had been scored in the first-half. They had now conceded two goals in their last four Premier League games. Viktor Fischer replaced Adama Traore in the third minute of added time in the second-half. Calum Chambers was booked in the second minute of added time in the second-half.

Comments:

League position: 10th AFC Bournemouth had now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last ten Premier League away games. They were now without a win in their last seven away games in the Premier League. Artur Boruc, Steve Cook, Charlie Daniels, Simon Francis and Adam Smith (five players) had all played the full 90 minutes in each of the Cherries' first ten games of this Premier League season; more than any other team. Jack Wilshere had now played two full Premier League games in a row for the first time since February 2014. Having already made their three substitutions, AFC Bournemouth were forced to play the last ten minutes of the game with ten men as Drew Surman left the field with an injury.
