Liverpool vs Bournemouth live stream: How to watch Premier League game online and on TV, team news

Premier League football returns to the iconic Anfield Stadium in the Liverpool vs Bournemouth live stream — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

Liverpool will be pleased to return home after kicking off their EPL season away to Chelsea last weekend. A 1-1 draw was a good result for Jürgen Klopp’s men who weren’t quite at their best against the Blues, and new midfield signings Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai showed plenty of early promise. Even during Liverpool’s rare rocky moments, Anfield has always been a fortress, so the expectation here will definitely be claiming all three points against a Bournemouth side who have never won at the famous stadium. 

Bournemouth also opened the new season with a stalemate at home to West Ham. The Cherries went behind initially but earned a point courtesy of a late strike from Dominic Solanke. The South Coast side are hoping to build on last year’s 15th-place finish, but it’ll be a very tall order for them to come away from Merseyside with anything to show for their efforts. Even so, club investor Michael B. Jordan will no doubt be watching and hoping that the Cherries can pull off an underdog victory befitting of a Hollywood movie. 

For Bournemouth the memories of this matchup last year may still haunt them. On that August day, Liverpool romped to a 9-0 victory, which is the joint biggest margin of victory in Premier League history. At the very least, the Cherries will hope to avoid a similar record-matching embarrassment. 

Here's how the team's lineup: 

Liverpool: Alisson, Robertson, Van Dijk, Konate, Alexander-Arnold, Gakpo, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Diaz, Jota, Salah.

Bournemouth: Neto, Kerkez, Senesi, Zabarnyi, Aarons, Billing, Rothwell, Anthony, Christie, Semenyo, Solanke.
