Why this match mattered

Bournemouth added three points and improved their goal difference by two, replacing the disappointment of the Chelsea result with a home win and a clean sheet. Their next league fixture is away to Manchester United. Sunderland took no points from their matches against Brighton and Bournemouth, conceding four goals in total. Their next league game, at home to Leeds United, gives them an opportunity to respond.
