Bournemouth vs Liverpool: match preview
Bournemouth have not been in the best form in recent matches and have been performing inconsistently. Over their last 14 games, the Cherries have managed just one win. The team has dropped to 15th place in the league and currently has 27 points after 22 rounds. Their gap from the relegation zone is solid — 10 points. However, they need to start picking up points more consistently, because at this rate they could allow their rivals to close in. At the same time, the gap to sixth place is not very large — seven points, so things could still turn out quite well. But the condition remains the same — they need to win more often.
Liverpool have returned to the top four and are now trying to secure their position there, which is far from easy. After 22 matches this season, the Merseyside club have collected 36 points and currently sit fourth. They are just one point ahead of fifth place and two points ahead of sixth. Thus, a top-four finish is by no means guaranteed. Liverpool are in decent form. They have not lost in 13 matches, but have won seven of them. In midweek, the team played a UEFA Champions League match, which they won 3:0, although before that they drew 1:1 with Burnley in the Premier League.
Probable line-ups
- Bournemouth: Petrovic; Smith, Hill, Senesi, Truffert; Scott, Cook; Jimenez, Kroupi, Adli; Evanilson
- Liverpool: Alisson; Frimpong, Gomez, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Jones; Salah, Szoboszlai, Wirtz; Ekitike
Prediction
Liverpool travel away after an impressive victory in the UEFA Champions League and will clearly be looking to extend their run. I think we will see a high-quality and intriguing match, but I still believe it will end with a victory for the visitors.
