History of the Bournemouth v Southampton fixture
Southampton travel to take on Bournemouth at Dean Court on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 6 out of 9 times.
The last time the two teams met at Bournemouth was amazingly over twenty years ago, in September 1987, the Cherries carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League Cup match.
