Liverpool head south for Saturday evening’s Premier League game at AFC Bournemouth.
The Cherries currently sit in 15th place in the table, 11 places but only 9 points behind Arne Slot‘s Reds.
Head-to-head stats show Liverpool have the advantage and, after an impressive 3-0 Champions League win at Marseille on Wednesday, are favourites to claim all three points.
Bournemouth have conceded 52 goals in their 17 Premier League games against Liverpool – against no side have they shipped more (also 52 vs Man City).
Liverpool have won 12 of their last 13 Premier League games against Bournemouth, with the exception being a 1-0 away defeat in March 2023.
Bournemouth have lost 10 of their last 11 Premier League games against the reigning champions, with the exception being a 2-1 home win against Man City last season. The Cherries had previously won three of their first six against the reigning champions (D1 L2).
Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 10 Premier League games, the longest current run of any side (W4 D6). However, they’ve drawn each of their last four, last drawing more consecutive league games in October/November 1980 (5).
Liverpool have drawn all four of their Premier League games so far in 2026. In top-flight history, only two teams have had a longer run of consecutive draws from the start of a calendar year – Southampton in 1995 (5) and Tottenham Hotspur in 1999 (6).
Only Sunderland’s Premier League games have seen fewer first half goals (18) than Liverpool’s this season (19 – F10 A9). However, Liverpool’s games have seen more goals scored after half time than any other side (43 – F23 A20).
Liverpool have failed to score in four different Premier League games this season, as many as in the 2023-24 (3) and 2024-25 (1) campaigns combined.
Florian Wirtz has either scored (3) or assisted (1) a goal in four of his last six Premier League appearances, with these goal involvements being worth six points to Liverpool.
