As I said in the last show… Liverpool are feeling there the heat now! They have dropped to 2nd (with a game in hand)
It’s VITAL they get a good result with a strong performance, or the the self doubt will creep in and will completely bottle it.

Liverpool have been winning at both half time and full timein 8 of their last 10 matches against Bournemouth in all competitions
