S.P.Read Esq: Liverpool v Bournemouth

Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the 8pm kick off on Monday in the Premier League between LIVERPOOL v BOURNEMOUTH and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.

The last two times Liverpool have played Bournemouth it’s finished 4-1 to the Reds – although in fairness those matches were played in 1927 and 1968 – a long time between drinks on the stats front !!

Liverpool started their new campaign with a win against Stoke but weren’t over convincing and arguably lucky to get all three points with their late goal.

Bournemouth’s rise to the top flight of English football has been nothing short of miraculous but the sad reality is that they are already amongst the three favourites to go straight back down.

AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe said: “Our aim is not to outplay Liverpool, or outpass Liverpool, or any nonsense like that. Our aim is to try and win the game. Then how we do that, and how you go about best doing that, that is down to how you see the game, so it’s not a competition on passes, it’s a competition on winning the game. The football really is irrelevant, it’s about finding a way to be competitive.”
