Bournemouth vs Liverpool Prediction: EPL Betting Odds & Picks

Bournemouth vs Liverpool betting picks
- Bournemouth or tie double chance (+115 Bet365)
- Antoine Semenyo two or more shots on target (+300 FanDuel)
Liverpool face a tough test of their Premier League title credentials on the road at Bournemouth on Saturday (10am ET, Fubo).
The Cherries are the EPL’s form team after dismantling Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest in back-to-back matches, scoring nine goals and conceding only once in the process.
Andoni Iraola’s men are now dreaming of a Champions League place next season courtesy of their 11-match unbeaten run, with a price of +500 available on betting sites for Bournemouth to secure a top four spot.
Only Chelsea and Brighton have recorded wins at the Vitality Stadium this term, highlighting the difficult challenge facing Arne Slot’s men. The Cherries have already beaten Arsenal and Manchester City this season and will relish another major scalp.
Liverpool are still strong favourites on sports betting sites at -150 to continue their march towards the title. The Merseysiders took the opportunity to rest players in the Champions League in midweek, leaving Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk fresh for the Cherries clash.
Bournemouth vs Liverpool Picks: Cherries To Pack A Punch
The Cherries are arguably playing the best football in the EPL at the moment.
Their last two victories have been outstanding, to say the least. Newcastle had won nine games on the bounce before hosting Iraola’s men, but were crushed at St. James’ Park as Justin Kluivert ran riot in a 4-1 victory, which may have flattered the Magpies.
Bournemouth were even better against Nottingham Forest last week. Forest have been out of the best teams in the EPL this season, especially at the back. But, even they had no answer for the Cherries’ speed and slick play, running riot with five goals in the final third.
Liverpool will have to be on their mettle against a formidable opponent. The Reds are unbeaten on the road in the EPL this term, but have had their fair share of scares, having to come from behind to beat Southampton before needing a late brace from Darwin Nunez to see off Brentford.
Liverpool are said to be admirers of Bournemouth’s leading man Antoine Semenyo and could witness firsthand his ability to torment opposing defenses. The Cherries are too good to overlook in the final third, while a rested Mohamed Salah will be ready to test the Bournemouth backline.
Given that Liverpool were held by Forest recently and have played out high-scoring games against Newcastle and Arsenal, we like Bournemouth’s chances of getting a result. The double chance market on betting apps offers +115 for a Bournemouth win or tie.

Bournemouth vs Liverpool Picks: Will Semenyo Shine?
Dango Ouattara and Kluivert have each scored hat-tricks in back-to-back matches for the Cherries. Kluivert downed the Magpies on the road before Ouattara took control in the second half in the win over Forest.
Semenyo went quietly about his business and notched his eighth EPL goal of the campaign with a late effort against Forest. Although he hasn’t notched a hat-trick yet, he has become the focal point for Bournemouth in the final third since the departure of Dominic Solanke.
With injuries to Evanilson and Unes Enal, he has become even more important and the Cherries can ill afford to lose him if they are to make a push towards the Champions League places.
Semenyo has caught the eye of Liverpool and Newcastle, among others, and he could be the next Bournemouth player to make a move. The 25-year-old has registered at least one attempt at goal in each of his 22 games this term, and placed an effort on target in 15 of those matches.
The stat that catches our eye is that Semenyo has registered two or shots on target on nine occasions, enough to convince us to back him at +300 on new betting sites for him to achieve that against the Reds.
