Liverpool hosts Bournemouth at Anfield in the second round of the 2023/24 English Premier League campaign. The Cherries remember last year’s visit here as one of the most humiliating experiences ever, with them losing 9-0.
Before Betting on Liverpool vs. Bournemouth
The Reds played 1-1 against Chelsea on the road in a game that could have easily seen at least four or five goals. Both sides had their chances, though, we need to admit that Chelsea looked better in the second 45 minutes. Luis Diaz scored the opener in the 17th minute, but the L’Pool’s defense conceded in the late first half.
Jurgen Klopp has problems in the back line, and that part of the team has been an issue for quite some time. Van Dijk is nowhere near his previous form, and all the other players in that part of the team struggle to be consistent. Meanwhile, the offense has been very good and efficient.
Bournemouth also played 1-1 in the opening round. Their rival was West Ham, who had the lead at some point but couldn’t keep it. The Cherries were a better team on Saturday, outplaying the rivals in the second half, but being short on luck.
This team plays solid football, emphasizing offense, with a few talented players in that part of the unit, like Justin Kluivert and Dominic Solanke. Since the start of the preseason, the Cherries failed to score in only one event.

Reds’ defense will be problematic, that’s something already obvious now, but on the other side, the attackers are in great shape. They should be enough to break Bournemouth, who has a certain quality, but not big enough to stop Liverpool at Anfield. Klopp’s players were unhappy with how things ended against Chelsea and vowed to respond against the Cherries.
