Vital Quotes:

AFC Bournemouth manager Lee Bradbury told the Daily Echo...

"The league is the most important thing but, at the same time with one eye on this cup, we are thinking that we could be four games from playing at Wembley.

"It would be a massive achievement for us to get there so I am tempted to play my best team."

AFC Bournemouth will be without striker Wes Thomas and midfielder Harry Arter.

Thomas is cup-tied after featuring for Crawley in the first round of the competition, while Arter is suspended.
