For Cherries, the game falls between home games against Brighton & Hove Albion (April 28) and Brentford (May 11).
Arsenal could potentially be in Champions League semi-final action either side of facing Cherries.
A statement read: “The Premier League would like to apologise to supporters for the inconvenience caused by the delay in announcing these fixtures.
“This was caused by significant disruption to London-based fixtures as a result of the planned TFL strikes on Saturday 4 May, which were cancelled on Thursday.
“There have also been additional scheduling complications through the possibility of clubs’ participation in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, which will take place either side of this match round.”
