da doce: Facing a team who have lost just one Premier League game this season may be a daunting prospect for a number of teams in the lower half of the table, but not Bournemouth.
da cassino online: Eddie Howe’s club will host Liverpool at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday, with 15 points currently separating the two outfits.
Jurgen Klopp’s Reds are currently flying high in second, just one point adrift of leaders Chelsea, after winning nine, drawing three and losing one.
As for Bournemouth, well, a club of their size are doing relatively well at the moment as they sit 12th in the standings, four points above the relegation zone.
However, they have earned victory in just one of their last four top-flight fixtures and have scored just three goals in their last five outings.
Liverpool head to the South Coast in better form, and while Howe believes that this weekend’s opponents are title challengers, he insists that his players are not scared of the threat.
“For me, Liverpool are genuine title contenders. They’ve shown this season what a good side they are and we’ll have to be at our best,” Howe told reporters in Friday’s press conference.
“We don’t look at the stats and worry. They’re a good team, but we’re going into the game aiming to win it. We have no fear. We’re at home and we’re always competitive here. We’ll give it a really good go and there’s no reason why we can’t get a result.”
The positive for Bournemouth is that Liverpool have been weakened by the absence of Philippe Coutinho, who will be on the sidelines for around five weeks with an ankle injury.
Adam Lallana could come back into the fold, though, after missing the Reds’ last three games, and he will be determined to feature given that they are facing a club his former club.
