The 2022-23 Premier League season rolls on this weekend as Arsenal make the short trip to the south coast face Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.

Whatever the result, it's bound to be a ride. Never mind the top four - could Arsenal be a dark horse title contender this term? The Cherries have bounced back to the top-flight and are out to make it a fixed home going forward.

[Arsenal](https://www.sportbible.com/arsenal) take the short trip down to the south coast this evening to face newly promoted Bournemouth.

Scott Parker's side take on the north Londoners this afternoon looking to respond to last week's defeat at Manchester City.

All will be revealed this evening, in front of the Sky Sports cameras! Bournemouth have some fond memories of playing against the Gunners in the past, and today represents something of another free hit for them. There are question marks over the involvement of Dominic Solanke, with Scott Parker likely to have made a late call on him yesterday. Will we see Marcos Senesi handed his first start? Will Dominic Solanke return? After their defeat at Manchester City last time out, they face Mikel Arteta's high-flyers today, and travel up to Liverpool next weekend. To my left, the Cherries are stretching in the far corner, in front of the Steve Fletcher stand. The players have now headed in for their final team talks, and the ball will be rolling at the Vitality in just under 15 minutes. Ryan Christie and Jack Stacey have dropped to the bench. Bukayo Saka and Ben White overlapped on the right, and the ball was fired into the box. Cherries struggling to keep the ball It would be fair to say the fixture list at the start of the season has not been kind to the Cherries.

They'll be hoping their supporters can help roar them on to a shock result. Follow all the action with Standard Sport's LIVE blog, as Simon Collings provides ...

They have the ambition, and it’s clear, there is so much evidence that they’re giving us all the support we need in order to do that.” And now it is about putting it on a piece of paper.” Fabio Vieira is named on the bench and will hope to feature for his Arsenal debut. The Gunners have beaten Crystal Palace and Leicester in impressive fashion, and are firm favourites to keep spirits high and make it three from three. They’ll be hoping their supporters can help roar them on to a shock result. There is a new-found versatility to the attack, but it is the same story in defence and the trip to Bournemouth is a chance to show that.

Minute-by-minute report: Will Mikel Arteta's side continue their 100% start or will they get a shock on the south coast? Join Barry Glendenning.

Kick-off on the south coast is at 5.30pm (GMT) but stay tuned in the meantime for team news and build-up. Dominic Solanke missed Bournemouth’s defeat at the hands of Manchester City with a foot injury but could return to action today following a late assessment. Marcos Senesi makes his full debut, while Jordan Zemura and Philip Billing are recalled. It’s a splendidly sunny evening on the south coast. Arsenal’s record signing is believed to be off to Nice. Halfway inside his own half, Ben White almost gets caught in possession by Ben Pearson but holds on to the ball and wins a free-kick. His shot from a tight angle was well saved by Travers, but the ball broke to Odegaard, who had the simple task of tapping in. May he rest in peace.

If it was meant to signify the arrival of a striking superstar, an update of the “Welcome to Manchester” posters that greeted Carlos Tevez 13 years ago, Dominic Solanke didn’t pass his fitness test and misses out. “Marcos is a defender who I feel has the attributes to handle the Premier League,” Parker told Sky Sports.

Again, it was smart football from Arsenal. Odegaard pokes it through Bournemouth's defence to find Jesus. Ramsdale celebrates as he approaches a clean sheet.

Arsenal continue their 2022/23 Premier League season with a trip to the Vitality Stadium to face newly promoted Bournemouth this weekend.

USA: The Bournemouth vs. — Arteta sticks with an unchanged starting XI for the third straight game on the south coast. Ben White delivers a cross after an overlapping run, and after a touch from Gabriel Jesus in the box, Martin Odegaard blasts it home. Dominic Solanke's ankle injury will not allow him to play for the second straight match. Gabriel Jesus with an extraordinary control of a hopeful ball and then he dances around multiple defenders before feeding Gabriel Martinelli. Arsenal are being patient on the ball and poking and prodding their way forward with crisp passing. 41st min.: It's still the same pattern of play. Then again, the home fans have nothing to sing about. They once again started strong and got two early goals and they've managed the game since. A throw-in by Chris Mepham is flicked toward goal by Lloyd Kelly on goal and it's a first shot on goal for Bournemouth! It was a forward's finish, and it came just as Bournemouth were having their best moment.

Bournemouth gaffer Scott Parker: “What Mikel has done in a short space of time is fantastic. “We have a big challenge ahead of us. Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta: “It will be a really tough match.

Martinelli almost improvises with an instinctive volley in the box but he shins it slightly wide.

These are exciting days at Arsenal and their team is remarkably settled for this stage of the campaign, especially compared to the chaos of the opening weeks of last season. Kieffer Moore scored his first Premier League goal on the opening weekend, and will look to test Arsenal's defence in their air. Jesus looked like he was going to spin and shoot but Odegaard did the job for him by sweeping into the net emphatically with his left foot. Saka turns Zemura, and the Bournemouth defender lets go of his shirt at the right moment to avoid a second yellow. Travers saved Martinelli's drive with his feet but Odegaard was on the six-yard line to score the rebound. A goal of some quality from the centre-half and, for the Arsenal fans who had sung his name throughout the first half, vindication of their devotion to the Frenchman who has finally arrived in the first team after three loans back in France. Granit Xhaka picked it up on the far side and cut it back to Saliba who took it first time on his left foot, a boot wrapped round the pass from the left that took it over and away from Travers. Tavernier whips it around the wall with his left though, and it clips the side-netting. It was such a good goal, and such a powerful run from Jesus that Bournemouth just seemed to drop deeper and deeper in anticipation of it happening again. There was not a single attempt on the Arsenal goal – on target or off – for the whole first half or indeed even a corner won. The team has remained the same for the first three games of the season and at this rate there is no need for Arteta to change it. The home side, who had beaten Aston Villa at the old Dean Court on the first day of the season, lined up with the intention to defend deep and in numbers and found themselves in trouble.

Gabriel Martinelli's cross goes all the way through to Granit Xhaka on the left who lays it back on the edge for Saliba. But a goal eludes Martinelli still, he cuts inside and fires a shot over after good work on the left. Moore is causing problems in the box again as Gabriel hacks away dangerously to try and get the ball. The Frenchman's first-time left-footed curler goes over Travers and into the top right corner. The ball pops out though after work from Gabriel Magalhaes. Bournemouth are a different side in their small stadium and the Gunners will need to be ready for anything. Unlucky from the forward. Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka is looking to get off the mark having failed to score in the opening two fixtures. Big chance for the Cherries. His relationship with Oleksandr Zinchenko is set to develop and holds plenty of potential, but perhaps a vulnerability defensively too. Therefore the entire starting XI is unlikely to change.

The winger's low shot was saved by goalkeeper [Mark Travers](https://www.espn.co.uk/football/player/_/id/7441/Mark-Travers), but Odegaard was on hand to slot home. "He gives us so much in the play and he drops down to combine. We are lucky to have him here." "If we can do that, we will try to do that. "It doesn't change, but we know as well where we are short, where we have to add more firepower. His contribution to the team was outstanding."

Read the report from our Premier League game at the Vitality Stadium as a Martin Odegaard brace sets us on our way to victory.

And six minutes later, the dream start for us and our captain continued as he grabbed a second to put us in firm control. Copyright 2022 The Arsenal Football Club plc. The opening goal came after five minutes, courtesy of a piece of Brazilian magic. Odegaard is the third Arsenal player to score twice in the first 11 minutes of a Premier League match, after Kanu in October 2002 vs Sunderland and Eddie Nketiah vs Leeds in May. However, the win had long-been secured, and with the clean sheet also in the bag, it meant we won our first two away league games without conceding a goal for the first time since 1993/94, and in the process moving us up to the Premier League summit. On 51 minutes we won a free-kick on and Martinelli drove down the right before firing a cross over to Xhaka at the back post to lay the ball off to the Frenchman, who promptly curled it into the top corner to register his first goal in our colours and clinch the win.

"There's no disgrace in losing to Arsenal in that sense but what is not acceptable is the first half and how we went about it. "Jesus didn't score today but he was involved in the goals and his contribution to the team was outstanding. In terms of our general body language and the general dynamics of what we needed to bring, I thought we were nowhere near it. We needed to have a bit of humility about us in terms of understanding the dynamics of the game and what we were up against. The part he played in that first goal, he deserved to be player of the match. Arsenal are back in action on Saturday Night Football when they host Fulham in a 5.30pm kick-off live on Sky Sports. He was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet but what an addition to the team Jesus has been and will be." I'm proud because it's not easy to come here and win 3-0 but there is still things to improve. The Frenchman scored an own goal last weekend against Leicester but more than made up for that with a wonderful, curling effort which went in off the underside of the bar (54). But a bit of bias as a No9 myself - it has to be Jesus. Going away, learning the game in France, he's come back to Arsenal and looks like a man now. He got an own goal last week but this more than makes up for it."
