Bournemouth Team News & Preview
Bournemouth host Liverpool in the Premier League this weekend and the Cherries will be looking to address their inconsistencies with a positive result.
Eddie Howe’s side have lost three of their last four Premier League matches and will need to turn things around if they want to stay outside the relegation zone.
Despite their impressive style of football, Bournemouth will struggle against an in-form Liverpool side. Both sides like to play a possession based attacking football and the home side are simply no match for the opponents in that department.
Lewis Cook and Andrew Surman are set to miss this weekend’s clash against Liverpool. Both players are struggling with injuries.
Predicted Bournemouth Starting Lineup (4-2-3-1): Federici; Francis, Cook, Ake, Smith; Arter, Gosling; Stanislas, Wilshere, Smith; Wilson
