BOURNEMOUTH have been dealt two further injury blows ahead of Saturday's FA Cup quarter-final with Saints.

Cherries returned to winning ways in style last night, dispatching of in-form Swansea City 3-0 at Vitality Stadium to get their play-off bid back on track, currently sitting seventh in the Championship.

But the win came at a cost, with influential midfielder Junior Stanislas forced off with a hamstring problem during the first half.

The 31-year-old has been one of Cherries' stand-out performers this term, scoring 11 goals, the joint most in the squad alongside Dominic Solanke.

But boss Jonathan Woodgate confirmed Stanislas will not be fit to face Saints at the weekend.

Another player he also confirmed would be missing is England under-21 international Lloyd Kelly, who was absent from Vitality Stadium last night due to an adductor strain.

That brings the total to seven players expected to miss this weekend's cup quarter-final.

David Brooks and Adam Smith are not ready to return from their respective ankle injuries, while Lewis Cook has been ruled out for the season after undergoing knee surgery.

All-action midfielder Jefferson Lerma is suspended having received two yellow cards earlier in the competition, while on-loan Saints striker Shane Long is cup-tied and cannot face his parent club.
