Bournemouth prepare to entertain Hartlepool United at Dean Court on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Cherries are clearly on top, having won 11 and lost only 2 of the 18 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Dean Court was less than a year ago, in May 2005, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides
Bournemouth's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While Cherries have scored 4, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Hartlepool U.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. While the Pools have hit 7 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Bournemouth's 1 points from 1 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position. Hartlepool U. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca Cola League One with a return of just 0 points from their 1 games thus far.
