We're underway at Dean Court.
A win this afternoon could take them into the top half of the Premier League and considering their woes early in the campaign - it would be a good sign heading into the final throes of the season.
West Ham were well beaten by Chelsea in their clash on Monday. The 2-1 scoreline does not highlight the Blues' dominance in the contest, with Manuel Lanzini notching a late consolation goal for the Hammers.
Eddie Howe's men needed the result against United, although they are still without a win in their last eight Premier League games, conceding 21 goals in the process. A victory is imperative to ease their relegation worries.
The Cherries earned a valuable point last time out against Manchester United, despite being reduced to 10 men at the end of the first half when Andrew Surman was dismissed.
Good afternoon and welcome to the live commentary of the Premier League clash between Bournemouth and West Ham at Dean Court.
The team news has been announced and we'll start with the home side.
WEST HAM (4-2-3-1): Randolph; Kouyate, Fonte, Reid, Cresswell; Obiang, Noble; Feghouli, Lanzini, Antonio; Carroll.
West Ham subs: Snodgrass, Adrian, Collins, Ayew, Byram, Masuaku, Fernandes.
Tyrone Mings begins his first game of his five-match suspension for his stamp on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, while Surman also serves his ban this afternoon. Simon Francis comes back into the side after an injury lay-off and Gosling replaces Surman in the middle of the park.
West Ham make one change from their defeat to Chelsea, with Michail Antonio restored to the line-up following his suspension, sending Robert Snodgrass to the bench.
STAT ATTACK! West Ham are unbeaten in their last three trips to Bournemouth, including their 3-1 at Dean Court last season.
The players are making their way out on to the pitch, so we should be underway shortly.
HALF-TIME: BOURNEMOUTH 1-1 WEST HAM
What a crazy game so far! It's level between the teams, which on reflection could be the fair score, although Bournemouth have missed twice from the spot. On the other hand West Ham have missed two good opportunities at the other end - so yes probably a decent reflection of the match.
Josh King has been hero and villain. First missing from 12 yards before notching an equaliser, while Benik Afobe is looking for redemption in the second half after also missing from the spot. Michail Antonio has been excellent in the first period and scored a fine goal, while Sofiane Feghouli has also impressed.
There are more goal in this contest for sure - so don't go anywhere!
The players are back out for the second half, so we should be underway again shortly.
FULL-TIME: BOURNEMOUTH 3-2 WEST HAM
Josh King's day didn't look to be going too well after his penalty miss in the early stages of the match, but he has notched a hat-trick to guide Bournemouth to their first win in nine Premier League matches, alleviating their relegation worries.
Goals from Michail Antonio and Andre Ayew almost earned the Hammers a point, but the Cherries scored late in the game to secure the three points.
Thanks for joining our commentary this afternoon. Until next time, goodbye.
