Bournemouth are reeling from the news that both Joshua King and Charlie Daniels will miss the club's important Carabao Cup tie against Chelsea on Wednesday night.

While the club's number one priority is to remain in the Premier League each season, a great club run can do wonders for the enthusiasm and support for clubs of their size.

It is already a massive task to expect a great performance from Bournemouth against a team of Chelsea's quality, and losing both King and Daniels will only make the job harder.

Eddie Howe spoke about the injuries in his pre-match press conference.

He said: "We don't think they are serious injuries but they are enough to keep them out of tomorrow and we will wait and see for Manchester City."
