Today sees Liverpool take on Eddie Howe’s struggling Bournemouth. The Cherries have lost four games in a row and won’t have much hope of rescuing that stat against the league leaders. Here is the confirmed Liverpool lineup to face Bournemouth.
Goalkeeper: Alisson
The Brazilian is back between the sticks after missing the Merseyside Derby through suspension.
Right back: Joe Gomez
Trent had a fantastic game against The Ev but Joe Gomez is preferred today.
Centre back: Virgil van Dijk
Our number four will be too strong and fast for the frail Cherries attack.
Centre back: Dejan Lovren
The Croatian pulled off a superb long ball for Divock Origi’s second goal, he deserves his place in the Liverpool lineup against Bournemouth.
Left back: Andy Robertson
Robbo was as tenacious as ever in midweek, we will need all of his fitness again today.
Defensive midfield: Jordan Henderson
Our skipper started on the bench against The Ev but is back in the Liverpool lineup to face Bournemouth.
Defensive midfield: James Milner
The veteran workhorse had a blinder against Everton and keeps his place.
Attacking midfield: Naby Keita
A series of injuries have kept the midfielder out of the side but he is fit to start today.
Left wing: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain
The Ox is back in the side and will be keeping the tempo high.
Right wing: Mo Salah
The Egyptian King has been in a sticky patch of late, this is the ideal game for him to recover his form.
Striker: Bobby Firmino
The Brazilian was on the bench for the derby win, he should be fully energised for today.
