James Justin and Leeds out to flip script on in-form Bournemouth
James Justin wants Leeds United to flip the script on Bournemouth and what they've been doing in a recent purple patch.
Today's hosts at the Vitality Stadium have won five on the spin, scoring 14 times without conceding a single goal.

"They're a team in very good form and scoring lots of goals and not conceding many," said Justin, who starts alongside Nico Elvedi and Muharemović in the centre of Daniel Farke's defence.
"Obviously, that's what we want to do today and throughout the rest of the season. But yeah, it'll be a difficult game today. It's a difficult place to come. The fans get behind them. It's difficult coming here and being so compact and tight to the pitch, it gives them an edge in their home fixtures. But we're looking to turn that in our favour today."
Leeds themselves have proved difficult to beat for everyone they've faced in the Premier League so far this season - only champions Arsenal have managed it and that was by the margin of a single goal at The Emirates.
Justin acknowledges the value of a point on the road, which would make it three unbeaten in a row for the Whites, but says he and his team-mates will set out to try and pick up a first win in five.
"We start the game with a point and at the end of the day, it's not a bad result if it comes to that," he said. "But we're looking to take all three."
