Anfield, England – The much-anticipated 2025-26 Premier League season don finally land, and we dey ready to catch all the action! Defending champions Liverpool go face AFC Bournemouth for their first match this evening, and no be small thing we dey expect, o!
Arne Slot don shake the whole line-up small, put Alexis Mac Allister for starting XI, after him miss last week Community Shield match. Joe Gomez fit sit down for bench. But we gatz count how many new guys dey amongst the substitutes like Hugo Ekitike and Jeremie Frimpong, wey dey ready to show wetin dem fit do for league debut.
We sabi say Liverpool dey eager to start the season with win, and dem get all the vibes for Anfield crowd. Last season, Liverpool pack 12 wins from their last 13 matches against Bournemouth and dem even mash dem 9–0. Na wetin we dey call ‘Reds magic’, my paddy!
Bournemouth, on the other hand, dey waka on thin ice, as dem never win for Anfield before, and only don even hold dem once! E be like say dem need to draw some lucky number for lottery to pull this one off! They gatz play like dem get fire under dem belle to fit stand any chance against robust defense of Liverpool.
After dem cry for penalty shootout last weekend when dem lose Community Shield, Liverpool gatz redeem demself. I no sure if Slot don sleep well because the way him defensive line take scatter last week be small wahala.
Bournemouth coach, Andoni Iraola, don lose some of him star players during the summer, so na new faces wey go need to step up big time. Lewis Cook dey suspend, while Enes Ünal dey struggle to fit come back from injury. And make we no forget Justin Kluivert wey don grab calf injury for the match, na serious matter too!
As we dey look for who go shine for Liverpool, nobody fit doubt Salah go put him magic boots for action because that guy no dey sleep. E go need to join forces with new boys like Wirtz and Ekitike to bring the goals! My prediction? I dey see Liverpool take this one 3-1 against Bournemouth. And if dem fail, e go mean say dem don turn banana for market!
