Liverpool will try to extend their unbeaten run to 14 games on Sunday, when they return from their winter break and visit Bournemouth at Vitality Stadium.
[ WATCH: Premier League on Peacock ]
The Reds haven’t lost in the Premier League since the end of September, and Jurgen Klopp’s side (45 points) sits top of the table, two points ahead of three-time defending champions Manchester City, as a result. Rarely have they taken the easy path to the top, though, after rescuing 19 points from losing positions this season (most in the PL). Liverpool have lost just one of the last 14 PL games in which they trailed (6W-7D-1L).
Bournemouth (25 points – 12th place) have surpassed expectations in Andoni Iraola’s first season in charge. The Cherries possess both a mid-table attack and defense, which puts them squarely on the path to safety, but they don’t appear satisfied with simply surviving. Bournemouth recently raddled of six wins during a seven-game unbeaten run that was snapped by Tottenham before the winter break. They scored two or more goals in all seven of the games (18 total), and kept four clean sheets (five goals conceded).
