Liverpool vs Bournemouth Premier League 2025-26 Match Teams Preview
Liverpool Preview
Liverpool defied expectations by winning the Premier League in their first season after Jürgen Klopp’s exit, finishing 10 points clear of Arsenal and ending Manchester City’s four-year dominance. Under Arne Slot, they’ve strengthened further, breaking the British transfer record for Florian Wirtz. Preparations, however, were marred by the tragic death of Diogo Jota in a car accident. After a strong pre-season and a narrow Community Shield loss, the Reds begin their title defence on an emotional Friday night at Anfield against AFC Bournemouth.
Liverpool Predicted Lineup
Alisson; Frimpong, Konate, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Ekitike
Bournemouth Preview
Bournemouth had their best-ever Premier League season in 2024/25, finishing ninth with a record 56 points under Andoni Iraola. Despite losing key players like Milos Kerkez to Liverpool, they aim to build on that success. After a strong start to pre-season, form dipped, including a 4-1 loss to Manchester United. Facing champions Liverpool at Anfield—where they’ve never won—will be tough, especially with six straight away league defeats, though their seven-game unbeaten opening-day record offers some hope.
Bournemouth Predicted Lineup
Petrovic; Araujo, Senesi, Hill, Truffert; Adams, Scott; Semenyo, Tavernier, Ouattara; Evanilson
