AFC Bournemouth will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today's opponents. The home side are currently 27 points behind Liverpool.
It's no vacation for neither AFC Bournemouth nor Liverpool as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
AFC Bournemouth form and stats
AFC Bournemouth have played 7 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-3-2 (wins-draws-losses). Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for AFC Bournemouth with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Manchester United game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
AFC Bournemouth lost their last game at Crystal Palace (placed 7th) after a 0-1 scoreline. Prior to that, an away loss at Tottenham Hotspur.
The AFC Bournemouth fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 7 matches. AFC Bournemouth's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 9 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Liverpool form and stats
The away performances of Liverpool, who have the most points (19) away in Premier League, have been very solid so far with 6 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats in the Premier League. The question is whether this happy travelling can continue. Liverpool have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of six victories in a row regardless of arena. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Liverpool are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.
Liverpool are travelling after their nice 5-2 home win in the Premier League against Everton (placed 18th). Before that, Liverpool secured a home win against Brighton & Hove Albion with the score 2-1.
A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Liverpool, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
The schedule is very tough for Liverpool now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Champions League game at Salzburg is waiting in only three days.
The travelling fans enjoy Liverpool's attacking play in away games, having scored 13 goals in 7 league matches away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (5 so far).
