Reds looking to bounce back at Anfield
Liverpool are looking to bounce back in the Premier League when they host Bournemouth this weekend.
Arne Slot’s side were dealt their first setback of the season last weekend when Nottingham Forest recorded their first win at Anfield since 1969 with an impressive 1-0 victory.
Still, the Reds got back to winning ways in the Champions League when they came from behind to beat AC Milan 3-1.
The Cherries, meanwhile, lost their first game of the new campaign at home to Chelsea last weekend after Christopher Nkunku’s goal sealed a tight 1-0 away win.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.
Liverpool vs Bournemouth is scheduled for a 3pm BST kick-off time on Saturday 21 September, 2024.

Bournemouth will be without Dango Ouattara and Tyler Adams, though Kepa Arrizabalaga could return after the terms of his loan move denied him the chance to face Chelsea.
