AI match recap

Bournemouth arrive with the sharper Europa League form and the greater momentum, making them the side Sparta must disrupt rather than simply match. The hosts have the advantage of a demanding Prague away day for the visitors and need to turn that into physical duels, territorial pressure and set-piece chances. Bournemouth’s reported injuries, especially in midfield and at full-back, offer Sparta a tangible route back into the contest. The match is likely to turn on whether Sparta can withstand the first wave of Bournemouth pressure and keep the game compact into the later stages.

Injuries and absences

FotMob also lists other possible absences on both sides, but those reports conflict with the supplied team-news feed and need official confirmation.
