Liverpool prepare to face Bournemouth in the Premier League during the weekend.

Ahead of the game on Saturday, September 21, 2024, Paul Merson shared his prediction on Sportskeeda.

Merson thinks the game will end in the Reds 2-0 win.

“I watched Liverpool in their loss against Nottingham Forest and I thought they should move the ball a lot quicker. But Liverpool are fortunate since Manchester City and Arsenal play each other this weekend. The Reds can gain on these two teams with a win over Bournemouth. In that regard, the loss to Nottingham Forest may not affect them as bad as we think,” said Merson.

“Arne Slot has to play Cody Gakpo in this fixture. I thought he was brilliant in the win over Milan. He also performed so well at the Euros, but we haven’t seen the same from him at Liverpool. Gakpo was going past people for fun and making the right decisions at Euro 2024. I’d be shocked if he doesn’t start and as a Bournemouth player I wouldn’t want to face him.

“The rest of the front-three don’t have the same physical prowess as Gakpo in my opinion. This could be very useful against a team like Bournemouth. I would also play Darwin Nunez instead of Diogo Jota in this game. When teams sit back, which I think Bournemouth will do, Nunez is a good option. If Liverpool play Nunez, they can ping crosses into him and that could work in their favour.”
