Match preview: Liverpool vs Bournemouth
Liverpool and Bournemouth will face each other at Anfield in the first round of the Premier League. Historically, direct confrontations favour the home team, with Liverpool winning the last three encounters.

The home advantage could be significant, especially as both teams show considerable differences in their home and away performances.
Team analysis: Liverpool
This marks Liverpool’s opening match of the new season, after finishing first in the previous one. The team is known to perform better at home, recording 6 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses in their last 30 away games, scoring 25 goals and conceding 21. In contrast, at Anfield, they have achieved 10 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, with 36 goals scored and 18 conceded. In their last match, they faced Crystal Palace in the Super Cup, ending in a penalty shootout defeat. Liverpool’s last 10 home games resulted in 6 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses. While their defence has been shaky, conceding in 9 of the last 10 encounters, their attack consistently finds the net, scoring in each of the last 10 games. Over 29 of their last 32 home matches have seen more than 1.5 goals, and 22 out of 32 have exceeded 2.5 goals. They have only managed to overturn the score in 1 of the 15 matches when they conceded first.
Liverpool enters this match following a defeat on penalties against Crystal Palace in the Community Shield. The reigning English champions typically deploy a 4-3-3 formation, favouring an offensive approach, particularly on the flanks. The attacking trio of Hugo Ekitiké, Mohamed Salah, and Cody Gakpo are expected to trouble the Bournemouth defence. The right side is crucial for their attacks, with Jeremie Frimpong providing width and being a key outlet for quick counters. Ryan Gravenberch is suspended, while Joe Gomez, Conor Bradley, and Stefan Bajcetic are injured and unavailable for selection.
Team analysis: Bournemouth
Bournemouth is set to kick off their campaign after finishing 9th last season. Interestingly, they have recorded better results away from home, with 7 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses in their last 30 away matches, scoring 32 goals and conceding 22. At home, they only achieved 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses, with 20 goals for and 14 against. Their most recent match saw them secure a 2-0 victory against Leicester City. In their last 10 away fixtures, Bournemouth secured 4 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses. Their defensive performance has been inconsistent, conceding in 7 of those 10 matches, but their attack has scored regularly, finding the net in 8 out of 10 games. There’s a notable trend of goals in their away matches, as 18 of their last 21 have resulted in over 1.5 goals, and 15 out of 21 exceeded 2.5 goals. They have only managed to turn around a scoreline in 1 of the 15 matches in which they conceded first.
AFC Bournemouth approach this match following a 0-0 draw in a friendly against Real Sociedad. Under manager Andoni Iraola, the team plays an attacking brand of football, utilising a 4-3-3 formation that emphasises speed and creativity. In attack, Antoine Semenyo, Evanilson, and Dango Outtara are capable of causing problems for any defence due to their mobility and skill. Julián Araujo highlights their right flank, acting as a key player in attacking phases. Ryan Christie, Lewis Cook, and Enes Ünal are unavailable due to injuries.
