#PLStories- AFC Bournemouth’s Tommy Elphick on Crystal Palace game #AFCB

CHERRIES will look to “really stamp what we’re about” on their encounter with Crystal Palace this weekend, according to Tommy Elphick. The Eagles visit the Vitality Stadium with Cherries unbeaten in their last two games at home, two victories over Everton prior to the break for the World Cup. Palace and Cherries both returned to Premier League action with defeats, the Eagles unable to muster a single shot on target in a 3-0 defeat to Fulham. That defeat to their London rivals saw two red cards for Crystal Palace, James Tomkins and Tyrick Mitchell suspended for the trip to the south coast. Asked for his thoughts on Palace, first team coach Elphick shared: “They're a dangerous team. “They've got some really, really top players, some real individual quality that's right up there with the best in the league. “So we're coming back off a break right now and looking to get players back and getting embedded into what we are doing. “So I think it's a game that we have to make about us. “With the tight turnaround, high energy, we've been accustomed to fast starts over the years at home. “If we can make it like that and really stamp what we're about on the game, then I'm sure we'd be fine.” After defeats on the road at Newcastle in the League Cup and Chelsea in the league, Cherries return home to the Vitality Stadium for the first time since defeating Everton 3-0 in November. Looking forward to seeing the home faithful again, Elphick shared: “Yeah, it'd be lovely, especially with the circumstances as well. “It's the first time that the manager is going to be playing at home as well since he's been named and we saw the reception he got at the end of the Everton game. “And we did end on a real high here with the last two games, the last two home games that we had, we played some fantastic football. “Obviously with the ownership as well, it feels like there's a real good atmosphere and hopefully use that to our advantage tomorrow.”
