Liverpool fans are preparing to watch their team’s first match in the new 2025/2026 Premier League season, where the Reds will face Bournemouth in the opening round on Friday, August 15, at 10 PM Cairo time. This match comes after Liverpool lost the Community Shield title to Crystal Palace on penalties (3-2), following a 2-2 draw in regular time.

The match featured an exciting performance, with Liverpool taking the lead first through Hugo Ekitike, Crystal Palace equalizing via Jean-Philippe Mateta from a penalty kick, then Jeremy Frimpong scoring the second goal for the Reds, but Ismaila Sarr restored balance for Palace with a late equalizer.

On the other hand, Mohamed Salah missed an important penalty for the Reds, contributing to Crystal Palace winning the title.

Liverpool coach Arne Slot hopes to compensate for the Community Shield loss and start the league strongly after winning the title last season.
