Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has suggested that Liverpool counterpart Brendan Rodgers has assembled his finest team yet ahead of Monday's clash.
The Premier League new boys travel to Anfield tomorrow night for their second top-flight match, having lost 1-0 to Aston Villa last weekend in their bow on the big stage.
Rodgers came within a point of ending the Reds' 24-year wait for a league title in 2014, before finishing sixth last term after talisman Luis Suarez left for Barcelona.
Steven Gerrard and Raheem Sterling quit Liverpool this summer as the Northern Irishman rebuilt his squad, having spent £185m since Suarez left, and Howe says that the current crop is Rodgers's strongest yet.
"This will be possibly the best Liverpool team Brendan has put together," he is quoted as saying by The Mirror.
"He has very talented individuals and has had longer to work with the players so they will be in tune with what he wants to do.
"Liverpool will be competing for the top places in the league so this is going to be one of our hardest games of the season. We have to make sure we turn up."
