Behind Enemy Lines: Wilson's and Ibe's contrasting fortunes in a struggling season for the team Liverpool love to play

03/06/20 • 19 min

After being knocked out of the FA Cup by Chelsea, Liverpool's Premier League campaign gets back underway on Saturday as they look to return to winning ways and take a step closer to the title with victory over Bournemouth at Anfield. Think the Reds are in bad form after losing three of their last four matches in all competitions? Bournemouth supporters might not particularly agree - their side have won just seven league games all season, and have lost their last five meetings with Liverpool by an aggregate score of 17-0. So, with all that in mind, Matt Addison speaks to Tom Crocker of the Bournemouth Echo to preview the encounter and assess where it might be won and lost. There is also the latest on both Harry Wilson, who is on loan from the Reds to the south coast side, and Jordon Ibe, the former Liverpool winger who moved to Eddie Howe's team in 2016. It's the perfect preview podcast ahead of Saturday's match. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
