Speaking to the club's official website Cherries boss Paul Groves said: "We are pleased that this game has come around so quickly.

"In football you have to move on and we now have an opportunity to put things right because we know there are things that we need to address.

"It's a local derby and it's important because we want to win and progress. A win will help lift everyone.

"We want to do it for the supporters who have got behind us but have been disappointed, and they deserve more."
