The Cherries had lost their opening two away league games of the season by an aggregate score of 13-0; the worst start since any Premier League or Football League teams since Brighton and Hove Albion in League Division Two in 1958-59 (14-0). They scored more than two goals for the first time in their last nine games in all competitions.
