"Newcastle United became the first team in Premier League history to draw their first three away games of a season 0-0, as they battled to a point against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium. Andoni Iraola's hosts bounded into Sunday's game on the back of three consecutive Premier League wins and knowing a fourth would put them second in the table, at least temporarily."
"Both goalkeepers were also worked early on as Tyler Adams' drive was blocked by the legs of Nick Pope, before Djorde Petrovic made a similar stop to deny Jacob Murphy at the other end. However, the chances dried up from there, with neither team managing a shot on target in the second half until the first minute of stoppage time. Justin Kluivert's free-kick was repelled by Pope to preserve Newcastle's clean sheet, their third in a row on their travels."
Newcastle United and Bournemouth played out a 0-0 draw at the Vitality Stadium, with Newcastle recording their third consecutive away clean sheet. David Brooks had a 16th-minute finish ruled out for offside after VAR showed his left boot marginally beyond Dan Burn following Evanilson's cutback. Early chances included Tyler Adams' effort blocked by goalkeeper Nick Pope and Djorde Petrovic denying Jacob Murphy. The second half produced almost no clear opportunities until stoppage time when Justin Kluivert's free-kick was saved by Pope. Bournemouth remained unbeaten in four league games and sit third in the table. Since joining Newcastle, Eddie Howe has failed to beat Bournemouth in seven Premier League meetings (five draws, two defeats).
