England Premier League.

Kick-Off: 13:30 UK
Venue: Dean Court, Bournemouth.

Bournemouth is in search of her first home win in 3 league home games. In midst of some inconsistent league display, the Cherries will be hosting high flying Liverpool for their 7th league home games of the season. Bournemouth will be going into the clash with a dissatisfied record of 1 win in their last 5 league games, a performance which sees them placed 12th on the with 15 point from 13 games.

Liverpool have dropped point just twice in their last 11 league games. The Merseyside club have shown a strong sign to a possible tittle push since their first and only season defeat to Burnley on match day 2. Moreover, the reds will be going into this encounter on the back 15 games unbeaten run, and 5 away league games unbeaten run. Liverpool sits 2nd on the log with 30 points, 1 point less than the log leaders.

Bournemouth vs Liverpool: Head-to-Head Statistics

Liverpool are unbeaten in 5 competitive clashes with Bournemouth. The reds enjoys a stainless spell in meetings with the cherries, conceding twice in the last 5 games with them

Moreover, both sides met for their first league meetings during the 2015/2016 season, an encounter Liverpool with a 3-1 aggregate score line over 2 legs.

In addition, this will be Liverpool 4th visit to the dean court in 3 years, having defeated the host in their first 3 visit to the arena.

Bournemouth vs Liverpool: Prediction

Inconsistent Bournemouth is faced with a huge mountain called Liverpool. If the cherries performance in recent games is anything to go by, they will have their hands full as they will be hosting the highest goal scoring team in the league this season.

Liverpool have scored 32 league goals so far, with the 14 coming from their last 5 league games. Klopp’s side quickly returned back to winning ways on Saturday, after they were held to a goalless draw by Southampton on match day 12.

The season have not been smooth for the host so far, and I don’t see that immediately changing, especially against a confident Liverpool side. Therefore, I will predict a comfortable for the visiting team.
