An away clash at Bournemouth might not have been underlined as a major obstacle in Liverpool's pursuit of the Premier League title but Saturday's clash on the south coast suddenly looks anything but a relaxed trip to the seaside.

Red-hot Bournemouth host Premier League leaders Liverpool on Saturday in what promises to be an absolute beauty of a game.

They will want to stay within their own budget, with regards to transfer fees and salaries, but Bournemouth are a lot more competitive than people realise. They have managed to find really good players along the way anyway and it is why they are in the position they are this season.

The Mancunians avoided an embarrassing early exit from the Champions League with a comeback win against Club Brugge to make the playoffs to get into the Champions League knockout round, but it’s their league form that should worry Arsenal fans. The Sky Blues brushed Chelsea aside 3-1 last weekend and have scored 15 goals in their past four matches.

As far Arne Slot is concerned there iss no such thing as a meaningless match and certainly not in the Champions League. In tonight's final game in the opening section of the Champions League, Liverpool could make it eight wins from eight if they can beat PSV Eindhoven.

For now, fans should recognise they are living through the best period in Bournemouth's history - and enjoy the ride.
