Match Notes:
The Reds welcome Bournemouth to Anfield for the second game of the Premier League season. Both sides started their campaigns off with a draw, and will look to claim their first 3 points of the season. Liverpool go into the match as obvious favorites, having beaten the Cherries 9-0 at home last season. Although they showed some promising signs going forward against Chelsea, Klopp’s men once again were too easily exposed at the back. With Liverpool still lacking a true 6 in midfield, Bournemouth will look to exploit them on the counter. The likes of Dominick Solanke, Jaidon Anthony, and Phillip Billing have blistering pace and have shown their ability to hurt teams in the past. The return of Thiago and Stefan Bajectic means Liverpool will have more midfield options to choose from, allowing them to make key changes if needed. I’d like to see Darwin Nunez start, as he looked bright off the bench last week. The Anfield crowd will be up for it, and Liverpool will win comfortably.
Score Prediction:
Liverpool 2-0 Bournemouth
