Howe: Stage set for great game

AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe is looking forward to his first game of his second spell in charge of the Cherries.

Howe returned to the club last week after deciding to leave Championship side Burnley to return to Dean Court.

He watched on from the Energy Consulting box as the team recorded their first home victory of the season against Leyton Orient, but on Saturday he returns to the dugout for the first time against top of the table Tranmere.

According to the Daily Echo, Howe has named defender Stephane Zubar, midfielder Harry Arter, striker Steve Fletcher and Donal McDermott in his provisional squad.

McDermott has only made one league appearance this season, playing the first half against Swindon in the Cherries 4-0 defeat at the County Ground.

Howe told the Daily Echo...

"It is always difficult choosing a team and the hardest part is telling players they are not playing or involved.

"We are going to need all the players who aren`t involved to be respectful of the team and to react the right way."

"They (Tranmere) are unbeaten in the league and it would be a really good scalp if we were to end that record. Everything is set up to be a great game."
