Tottenham Hotspur vs. Bournemouth live stream 2016: game time, TV channels, and how to watch online

It's match day! Tottenham Hotspur host Premier League debutants Bournemouth at White Hart Lane today with only a handful of matches left in the Premier League season. The Cherries came into this match just hoping to survive, and it looks like they've done just that under Eddie Howe, despite losing starting striker Callum Wilson early on to injury. Bournemouth hasn't exactly set the world on fire but they've done enough to virtually guarantee themselves another season of Premier League football. Good for them.

Unfortunately, they stand in the way of Tottenham's Premier League title ambitions. Spurs need a win today against the Cherries to keep pace with Leicester City, who defeated Crystal Palace 1-0 yesterday to maintain their five point lead at the top of the table. A loss won't drop Spurs out of second place but it will narrow the gap on rivals Arsenal, and nobody wants that, of course.

Spurs are fresh off a 5-1 aggregate thumping at the hands of Dortmund in the Europa League, but they managed to rest a few key players and should be fresh enough to handle the Cherries. Jan Vertonghen and Clinton N'Jie are still out, but Spurs should field a first choice side otherwise.

At this stage of the season, only a win will do. Let's hope they get one.

COYS!
