Liverpool: Four game losing streak has Bournemouth fans fearing worst

Liverpool will travel to Bournemouth on Saturday but the Cherries’ fans are fearing the worst as their side hits a four game losing streak in the Premier League.

Liverpool Football Club sit at the top of the Premier League table. They are undefeated with only one draw in 15 league games to this point. This Saturday they head to Bournemouth who have lost the last four games on the bounce.

That four game losing streak includes defeats to Newcastle, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace.

They will miss Harry Wilson for matchup as the Liverpool loanee cannot feature against his parent club. The winger is their top scorer this season with six goals including a brace in the defeat to Spurs last weekend.

Many Liverpool fans worry about this fixture because of what happened in December 2016. The Reds were 2-0 and 3-1 up before eventually losing 4-3 to a last-minute Nathan Ake winner. Though, bear in mind, the defense that day was Nathaniel Clyne, Dejan Lovren, Lucas Leiva and James Milner. Oh, and Loris Karius was in goal.

Since then, the Cherries have lost their last two league games to Liverpool at Dean Court to 4-0 score lines.  The paranoia has already set in among their fan base that Saturday will be a similar demolition as they tweet out their hesitation of welcoming Klopp’s top-of-the-table Reds:

Additionally, Jurgen Klopp was able to rest a number of his top stars as the Reds strode to a 5-2 victory over Everton in the Merseyside Derby; Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Jordan Henderson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Alisson Becker were all able to rest on the bench.

In contrast, Bournemouth failed to beat Palace despite the Eagles playing over 70 minutes of the game with 10 men. No wonder they are worried.
