Liverpool begin their Premier League title defence against Bournemouth in the season opener on Friday night at Anfield . The Cherries finished ninth in the top flight last time, and Slot has declared that the south coast club are probably the most intense team in the league.
Arne Slots side are favorites to repeat their league title winning heroics from last season, having invested heavily in the summer transfer window.
Softfootball understands that this fixture has a history of goals, with Liverpool famously putting nine past the Cherries in 2022, and the last four league meetings producing 13 in total. This one should offer plenty of attacking drama.
