Liverpool vs Bournemouth preview

Just a blip?

Liverpool's tremendous start to the 2024-25 campaign came to a shuddering halt against Nottingham Forest last weekend as the visitors snatched a 1-0 win at Anfield.

But Arne Slot's side quickly rectified the result with a confident 3-1 victory at the San Siro against AC Milan in the Champions League.

And that momentum should serve them well back on Merseyside as they seek to claim a fourth win in their opening five top-flight fixtures.

Their H2H against the Cherries should also give them reasons to be cheerful this weekend having won nine of their last 10 Premier League meetings with Bournemouth.

Slot's side are also still ranking high in many of the most important metrics.

Their xG (8.04) is second only to Manchester City, they're averaging a chance every 6.2 minutes and no side has faced fewer shots (28) or conceded fewer goals (1) than Liverpool in the Premier League this season.

That could be problematic for the visitors, who've won just one of their last seven Premier League games - and that was a shock turnaround at Goodison Park having conceded twice.

But Andoni Iraola's side are no slouches, and they will head to Anfield with the handbrake off. Only Brighton and Manchester City can better their 65 attempts on goal while they rank third for xG (7.63).

Liverpool vs Bournemouth betting tips and predictions

Super Salah

Let's not mess around with this one - Mohamed Salah to score 2+ goals is available at 19/5 with William Hill.

The Egyptian attacker, 32, has scored nine goals in nine Premier League games against Bournemouth.

The Cherries could be the fourth team he’s reached double figures against in the competition, and given he takes penalties and has double the number of shots on target than any of his colleagues - we think he'll fill his boots on Saturday.

Goals

As mentioned above, I suspect last week's loss to Nottingham Forest was just a blip. Liverpool still managed 70% possession, 14 goal attempts and netted three in midweek.

Bournemouth will not be parking the bus, and that could well yield plenty of goals this weekend. Both rank in the top five for attempts on goal and both are in the top four for xG this season.

• Over 3.5 goals scored at 10/11 with William Hill -
