38'
It was Mawson who conceded the free-kick and it was his touch which took it past Fabianski. A nightmare couple of minutes for the Swansea defender.

GOAAALLLL!
Bournemouth are ahead and it's a fine strike from Fraser.
From the free-kick, Surman rolls it across to Fraser whose controlled shot from the edge of the box is fired into the back of the net. It may have taken a deflection off Mawson, which ultimately left Fabianski with no chance.

Olsson is booked for encroachment.

DRAMA!
A rash challenge from Mawson upends Wilson, an inch outside the penalty area. It could hardly be closer, but Bournemouth have to settle for only a free-kick.
33'
Possession: Bournemouth 49% - 51% Swansea. As demonstrated by the stats, things are pretty close.
30'
OVER!
Jordan Ayew has been Swansea's most potent threat, cutting in from the channel. He pulls off that trick again just now, before firing a shot at goal but he can't keep it down.
28'
West Brom, who are rock bottom, are currently drawing 0-0 with Tottenham, while 15th-placed West Ham - currently two points ahead of Swansea - are also being held at Leicester.
26'
OVER! Ayew finds space to swing in a deep cross to the back post where Olsson has wriggled free from his marker, but the Swansea midfielder can't keep his header down.
25'
Fraser whips the ball in but it's over everyone and Roberts clears for Swansea.
24'
Fernandez can't live with King so he hauls him down, on the right-flank. This is another decent opportunity for Bournemouth.

20'
Bournemouth are great to watch on the attack; they can move the ball so quickly from defence to their front-line.

OVER!
Bournemouth's front-three combine once more to conjure up another decent chance. Surman ought to shoot but opts to tee up Wilson. However Fernandez races back and his presence is enough to pressure Wilson into blazing over the bar from 15 yards.
18'
Well this is most enjoyable. Both sides are going for it, and it's making for a lively, open contest.

BIG CHANCE!
Oh, you shouldn't miss from there! Tenacious work from Cook wins the ball for Bournemouth in midfield and he works it to Frazer on the left-flank. He bends an inch-perfect cross to Wilson at the back post, but he strikes the shot first-time, slicing it well wide with only the goalkeeper to beat.

WIDE!
Swansea go close again, and it's another free-kick delivery from Ki which almost causes the damage.
He clips the ball to the back post, Mawson rises highest but he can't direct his header on target.

SAVES!
Swansea threaten for the first time, going close to opening the scoring from a free-kick.
There's a scramble inside the Bournemouth penalty area, it falls to Fernandez whose shot from point-blank range is superbly saved by Begovic.
But the hosts can't clear and Swansea have another chance, but this time the Bournemouth goalkeeper denies Dyer.

Pugh strays a mile offside to receive a through-pass before sticking it in the back of the net. Of course it won't count - van der Hoorn stepped up at the crucial moment
5'
Swansea deal with not one but two Bournemouth corners. Carlos Carvalhal will be concerned by the start his side have made, though. The Cherries are finding too much space between defence and midfield.
4'
King skips away from Mawson before fizzing in a low cross from the right, but Fernandez is alert to clear the danger behind for Bournemouth's first corner of the afternoon.
3'
Bournemouth's front-three: Wilson, King and Surman are causing Swansea plenty of problems in the opening stages here.
