Liverpool vs Bournemouth Team News

Liverpool Team News

This summer, Liverpool were reminded that life is very short. Only a few days after his wedding, forward Diogo Jota tragically died in a car accident alongside his brother. In addition to mourning his loss, marked by the retirement of Jota’s No. 20 jersey, the tragedy translated into a busy transfer window for the club. 

The Reds brought in Jéremie Frimpong, Miloš Kerkez, Freddie Woodman, and Hugo Ekitiké, while also pursuing Newcastle’s Alexander Isak. However, his arrival seems unlikely, as the two sides have been unable to agree on terms that satisfy all three parties.

Liverpool’s pre-season included four wins, with the most notable being a 4-1 victory over Athletic Club. Still, the summer ended on a sour note, with Crystal Palace defeating the Reds on penalties (3-4) in the Community Shield. 

Ryan Graverbech and Bajčetić are both suspended, while Conor Bradley and Joe Gomez are awaiting medical clearance.

Liverpool Predicted lineup vs Bournemouth (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Kerkez, Van Dijk, Konaté, Frimpong; Szoboszlai, Jones; Gakpo, Wirtz, Salah; Ekitiké.

Bournemouth Team News

Since Andoni Iraola took over, Bournemouth have become a real challenge, even for the upper table. His intensity, combined with his love for La Liga talents, has proven to be a potent formula for competing in the Premier League. After finishing ninth last season, the Cherries head into the new campaign with serious ambitions.

The most important signing of the summer has undoubtedly been the arrival of Adrian Truffert, brought in to strengthen their left-back position – a key role in driving Iraola’s attacking approach.

Bournemouth’s pre-season was perfectly balanced with two victories, two draws, and two defeats. The squad beat Hibernian and Everton, lost to Manchester United and West Ham, and wrapped things up with draws against Real Sociedad’s first and second teams.

Enes Ünal remains sidelined through injury, while Lewis Cook, Ryan Christie, and Luis Sinisterra are awaiting medical clearance.

Bournemouth lineup vs Liverpool (4-2-3-1): Petrović; Truffert, Senesi, Hill, Smith; Adams, Scott; Semenyo, Kluivert, Tavernier; Evanilson.

Liverpool vs Bournemouth Prediction, Odds

Despite Liverpool’s defeat against Crystal Palace in their most recent game, the betting odds still back the hosts to win at Anfield. The new signings have delivered exciting results for the Reds, with Frimpong and Ekitiké already finding the net. While there has been somewhat of a squad overhaul, there are good reasons to believe it is for the better. 

Bournemouth, on the other hand, haven’t been too active during the summer and are unlikely to impress against Liverpool’s new shiny toys.

Liverpool vs Bournemouth Betting Tip

Ekitiké will undoubtedly be the game-changer for Liverpool. As he’s consistently shown, he has the potential to be among the best strikers in Europe, if not the world. His dynamism fits perfectly with the Reds’ style, and with Salah feeding him chances, it’s only a matter of time before he finds the back of the net.

It’s also refreshing for Liverpool fans to see a killer in the box after the Darwin Núñez chapter, as he regularly missed chances while doing little to make up for it.
