Injuries and Suspensions
AFC Bournemouth host Liverpool at Vitality Stadium in a Premier League fixture that pits two clubs heading in notably different directions this season.
Bournemouth arrive on the back of a remarkable Europa League debut, having beaten Real Sociedad 2-1 in the Basque Country. Marco Rose's side have shown they can compete on multiple fronts, and the Vitality faithful will expect that same intensity on home soil.
Liverpool come into this one sitting in the top half of the table, but Andoni Iraola's squad has shown inconsistency in the league. A goalless draw at Fulham last time out in the Premier League was far from convincing, even if Champions League and Carabao Cup results have offered more encouragement.
Alexander Isak leads the Liverpool attack after his British-record move from Newcastle, and the Swedish striker has spoken openly about overcoming a serious leg break to establish himself at Anfield. His presence gives Liverpool a genuine focal point in attack.
Florian Wirtz remains a subject of scrutiny. The German playmaker has not hit the heights expected of him since his move to Liverpool, and Bayern Munich are said to be monitoring his situation closely. Iraola has publicly backed him, but questions persist.
For Bournemouth, the likes of Justin Kluivert and Rayan will look to cause problems on the flanks, while Evanilson leads the line. Rose has built a side capable of pressing high and transitioning quickly, and Liverpool will need to be sharp.

Form
Bournemouth have recorded one win, three draws, and one defeat across their last five matches in all competitions. Their most recent outing was a 2-1 Europa League victory over Real Sociedad, and they also drew 2-2 with both Brentford and Newcastle in the Premier League. They have scored nine goals and conceded six across those five games, showing a side capable of scoring but not always keeping opponents out.
Liverpool's last five matches show three wins, two draws, and no defeats. Their most recent result was a 3-1 Carabao Cup win over Tottenham Hotspur, while a 0-0 draw at Fulham was their last Premier League outing. They beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 in the Champions League and won 2-0 at Ipswich Town, scoring eight goals and conceding four across the five fixtures.
Head-to-Head Record
Head to Head
The most recent meeting between these sides came in January 2026, when Bournemouth beat Liverpool 3-2 at Vitality Stadium in the Premier League. Across the last five head-to-head fixtures, Liverpool have won three times and Bournemouth twice, with the visitors claiming victories of 4-2, 2-0, 3-0, and 4-0 in earlier meetings. Bournemouth's two wins in that run both came at home, suggesting Vitality Stadium has been a more level playing field in recent times.
