Liverpool have named a strong starting XI for their Premier League match against Bournemouth, with Arne Slot setting up his side for a crucial away test at the Vitality Stadium.
Kick-off is scheduled for 17:30 GMT, with the Reds looking to strengthen their position in the top four as the league weekend unfolds.
Liverpool will start with Alisson in goal, supported by a back line of Jeremie Frimpong, Joe Gomez, Virgil van Dijk and Milos Kerkez. The selection underlines Slot’s attacking intent from full-back while keeping experience at the heart of defence.
In midfield, Ryan Gravenberch partners Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, giving Liverpool a blend of control, energy and forward passing. The trio will be tasked with dictating the tempo and supplying the forwards early.
Mohamed Salah leads the attack alongside Cody Gakpo and Florian Wirtz, forming a fluid front three with pace and creativity. Salah remains Liverpool’s key threat in front of goal, while Wirtz continues to feature prominently in Manchester City latest news rivals have tracked closely this season.
On the bench, Liverpool have strong options, including Giorgi Mamardashvili, Andy Robertson, Wataru Endo, Curtis Jones and Hugo Ekitike, giving Slot flexibility if changes are needed.
The match comes at an important moment in the Premier League calendar. Liverpool know a positive result could help them solidify a top-four place, especially with Manchester United facing Arsenal later in the weekend.
Bournemouth enter the game in 15th position and have struggled for form, with just one win in their last 13 league matches. Despite that, Liverpool will be wary of a tough away atmosphere and the need to stay focused from the first minute.
