Liverpool and Bournemouth have suffered their maiden defeats of the season last weekend. They are now set to come across each other in Gameweek No 5 on Saturday afternoon at the Anfield.
The Reds established themselves as proper title contenders after a brilliant start with three clean-sheet wins.
Nonetheless, they ruined it all with an unpleasant 0-1 home defeat at the hands of Nottingham Forest seven days ago.
Forest completely shut Liverpool’s stars down last weekend at the Anfield and deservedly claimed the spoils via a Callum Hudson-Odoi stunner in the second half.
However, Arne Slot’s men responded well, beating AC Milan 3-1 away at Stadio San Siro on Tuesday night on the opening day of the Champions League campaign.
Bournemouth produced a solid effort against Chelsea last weekend but it was only enough a 0-1 defeat at Vitality, their first loss of the season.
The Cherries missed numerous big chances on the occasion, including Evanilson’s penalty kick in the first half.
Liverpool vs Bournemouth Prediction
Liverpool did not create much last weekend against Nottingham Forest but they are in for a completely different clash against a distinct rival.
Bournemouth can’t defend as good as Nottingham Forest and they have dangerous attacking players in their ranks like Antoine Semenyo or Evanilson.
