Leeds United vs AFC Bournemouth: date, kick off and how to watch highlights as the Cherries visit Elland Road

Leeds United are back at home in the Premier League this weekend as they welcome AFC Bournemouth to West Yorkshire. Leeds head into the match having put an end to a poor run of form at Liverpool last weekend.

Leeds triumphed 2-1 at Anfield thanks to goals from Rodrigo Moreno and Crysencio Summerville. It was a win which brought to a halt a run of eight matches without a win. The victory moved Jesse Marsch’s side out of the relegation zone.

Saturday’s visitors AFC Bournemouth are going through a sticky spell following a six match unbeaten run under caretaker manager Gary O’Neil. The Cherries are without a win in their last three games and are currently just one point above Leeds.

A win for either side at Elland Road could move them up to as high as 12th in the Premier League table. A Leeds victory could see them move four points clear of the relegation zone depending on other results around the country.

Leeds United vs AFC Bournemouth has been selected for a 3pm kick-off time on Saturday November 5 and so it won’t be shown live on UK television. This is to comply with the ‘blackout’ regulation on televised coverage between 2:45pm and 5:15pm on a Saturday.

Under the rules, broadcasting rights are restricted for clubs in the UK, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands, and the Isle of Man. Not all is lost, though, as highlights will be available for Sky Sports subscribers on the Sky Sports app around 15-30 minutes after the final whistle.

Highlights of Leeds United v AFC Bournemouth will also be available to watch on BBC’s Match of the Day. This programme will start at 10.30pm on November 5.
