The DR Congo international missed the Cherries' last three games due to a knock, but will be available for their home game against David Wagner’s men

Bournemouth coach Eddie Howe disclosed that Benik Afobe has recovered from an injury to be in contention for Saturday's English Premier League fixture against Huddersfield Town.

The 24-year-old forward was replaced in the 74th minute after suffering a knock in the Cherries' 1-0 loss to Chelsea on October 28.

Having missed the Cherries' last three games, Howe has given the green light on the availability of the former Wolverhampton Wanderers and MK Dons forward.
