Bournemouth vs. Liverpool: Premier League – Match Preview

Two of the in-form Premier League sides go head to head on Sunday as league leaders Liverpool travel to face Bournemouth.

Bournemouth’s four game winning streak in the league came to an end last time out as they were beaten 3-1 by Tottenham.

They did rally from two goals down to beat Queens Park Rangers in the FA Cup though and have been handed a home tie against Swansea City.

Liverpool hit four past Newcastle United in their last match, creating a record high xG in the process.

They also eliminated Arsenal from the FA Cup, winning 2-0 at the Emirates, with Luis Diaz sealing the win late on.
