Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 15
Bournemouth wins: 3
Draws: 2
Spurs wins: 10
Bournemouth and Tottenham Hotspur have faced each other a total of 15 times across all competitions, with Spurs leading the overall head-to-head record having posted 10 wins to the Cherries' three, while just two draws have been played out between the two clubs.
The very first meeting between these two teams took place in February 1957 when Bournemouth (known then as Bournemouth and Boscombe Athletic) beat Tottenham 3-1 on home soil in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Since then, each of the last 14 meetings between these two teams have been played in the Premier League, with Spurs initially dominating this fixture with six wins and one draw in their first seven top-flight encounters against Bournemouth, scoring 22 goals in the process.
Tottenham thrashed the Cherries by a 5-1 scoreline at the Vitality Stadium in October 2015, and then 4-1 at the same venue in March 2018, while they also celebrated 4-0 and 5-0 home victories during this run in April 2017 and December 2018 respectively.
At the eighth time of asking as a Premier League club, Bournemouth picked up their first three points against Spurs in a slender 1-0 home win in May 2019, courtesy of a dramatic 90th-minute goal from Nathan Ake.
Including that victory, Bournemouth have accumulated seven points from their last 21 available against Spurs, with three of those collected in a 3-2 away win in April 2023 when Dominic Solanke - who now plies his trade at Spurs - got his name on the scoresheet for the Cherries.
Tottenham did the double over Bournemouth in the 2023-24 campaign, with James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski on target in a 2-0 away win in August 2023, four months before Pape Matar Sarr, Son Heung-min and Richarlison all scored in a 3-1 home success, with Alex Scott netting a late consolation for the Cherries in that one.
