Liverpool vs Bournemouth Preview

Bournemouth are currently in 10th place in the Premier League standings and have been fairly impressive since the turn of the year. The Cherries were held to a 1-1 draw by West Ham United in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.

Liverpool, on the other hand, are in 12th place in the league table at the moment and have flattered to deceive over the past year. The Merseyside outfit played out a 1-1 draw against Chelsea last week and will need to take it up a notch to win this game.

Bournemouth can pack a punch on their day but have a shockingly poor record at Anfield. Liverpool are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.
