Team Analysis
Liverpool comes into this match looking to bounce back after an unexpected defeat to Nottingham Forest. They showcased their potential by defeating AC Milan 3-1 in the Champions League, which should boost their confidence. With almost a full squad available, apart from reserve Harvey Elliott, Liverpool is expected to field a strong team. Mohamed Salah will be eager to find the net after recent near misses.

Bournemouth also suffered a narrow 0-1 defeat in their last outing against Chelsea. Despite this, they played competitively and had chances, including a missed penalty by new signing Evanilson. With an almost fully fit squad, barring Tyler Adams, Bournemouth will aim to capitalize on any opportunities Liverpool presents.

Head-to-Head
Historically, Liverpool has dominated this fixture, winning nine of the last ten encounters against Bournemouth. The most notable was a 9-0 victory in August 2022. Bournemouth's sole victory in this period highlights the challenge they face at Anfield.

Prediction
Given Liverpool's motivation to rectify their recent league setback, a high-scoring game is anticipated. We predict a 3-0 victory for Liverpool, with a focus on attacking play. Expect more than 2.5 goals in the match. Additionally, Liverpool is likely to continue their trend of delivering more than 6.5 corners.

Pick: Liverpool -1.5
