Bournemouth

• Bournemouth won their opening game of the season but have since lost their last three Premier League games by an aggregate score of 16-0.
• The 16 goals they have shipped in their first four league fixtures is the most by a side at this stage of a top-flight campaign since Arsenal also conceded 16 in 1963.
