It's true that during times of pressure like this the Liverpool players' mentality is being tested, but if you look at Liverpool's journey I think they can get through this match with a win because Liverpool are used to pressure like this even though Liverpool is without Mohamed Salah, and Liverpool also lost another player, Trent Alexander. - Arnold is injured. Even though it is a big blow for Liverpool, I am sure Kloop can overcome it in this match.

So even though Bournemouth are in a good trend, having only suffered one defeat in their last eight matches in the EPL, maybe this match will be a little difficult and intense. However, in my opinion, Liverpool has the ability in terms of player material and mentality to get three points in this match. Judging from the last few matches, Liverpool is also more dominant.

Whoever is in first place will most likely always face pressure and there will always be a burden to be able to win every match so that their position remains safe. Likewise with Liverpool, moreover they will play as guests. But if we look at their consistent performance and how good their composure is in every match they have played, I guess Liverpool can win this match. If that ultimately happens, then the pressure will shift towards Man City.

I agree with that, but don't think Liverpool need to feel pressured as long as they don't come up against a team as strong as them. Arsenal, Aston Villa and Manchester City are the teams who so far appear to have an equal chance of winning against Liverpool, but Bournemouth are not. Even if Bournemouth plays at home, but they don't have a good probability of winning against a top team like Liverpool. So Liverpool are favorites to win, but Klopp needs to be careful about planning the game.

Liverpool must win and they must not lose points if they don't want Manchester City to come and bring a lot of pressure. Manchester City and Liverpool are only 2 points apart so far, so it is relatively small to expect Liverpool to lead the standings safely. But in my opinion, Liverpool won today.
