Bournemouth vs Leicester live stream: how to watch Premier League online and on TV from anywhere, team news
Bournemouth are in the shop window and looking to impress
Leicester finally have lift-off, but to propel themselves further up the standings they're going to have to find a way to beat Bournemouth, who suddenly have one of the meanest backlines in the league. The Cherries are also out to impress prospective new owner Bill Foley, who's expected to be at Dean Court today for this one. Here's how to watch a Bournemouth vs Leicester live stream and catch the Premier League online, no matter where you are.
Ryan Fredericks finally makes his full Bournemouth debut after signing in the summer, slotting in at left-back in place of Jordan Zemura. Gary O'Neil has also switched things up further afield, with Kieffer Moore dropping to the bench and Ryan Christie partnering Dominic Solanke up front.
Patson Daka is in for Jamie Vardy in the lone striker role, while Boubakary Soumare comes in for the injured Wilfred Ndidi at the base of midfield, behind Youri Tielemans and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
Date: Saturday, October 8
Kick-off time: 3pm BST / 10am ET / 7am PT / 7.30pm IST / 12am AEST / 3am NZDT
Venue: Dean Court, Bournemouth
Live stream: Peacock TV (US) | FuboTV (CA) | Optus Sport (AU) | Disney+ Hotstar (IN) | Sky Sport (NZ)

When O'Neil took the reins, Bournemouth had just been pummelled 9-0 by Liverpool. They haven't lost a game since, and have conceded from open play just once in the four matches he's taken charge of.
Goals are proving trickier to come by, but if there's one thing Leicester's defense guarantees, it's opportunities. The Foxes romped to a 4-0 win over Nottingham Forest on Monday, recording their first win and their first clean sheet of the season in the process, but the latter had more to do with Forest’s wayward finishing than anything else.
At the other end of the pitch, however, Brendan Rodgers' men are purring. James Maddison's brace, Harvey Barnes' stunner and Daka's sumptuous flicked finish lifted them off the foot of the table in style. With a run of favorable fixtures to get stuck into, their season could quickly gather pace, but only if that rearguard is able to cut out the blunders.
