What's Next for Liverpool and Bournemouth?

The encounter with the Cherries represents the most straightforward of Liverpool's three competitive August matches, with the Reds subsequently traveling to face Newcastle United at St James' Park on August 25. Some tension might be present due to the continuing Alexander Isak transfer speculation.

Liverpool then hosts Arsenal at Anfield on August 31 in a clash that could potentially influence this season's Premier League championship battle.

For Bournemouth, the remaining August schedule becomes more manageable. Their Carabao Cup second round fixture against Brentford sits between Premier League encounters with Wolverhampton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur.
