Liverpool travel to Bournemouth on Saturday, aiming to record their first Premier League victory of the calendar year.
Arne Slot’s side has moved back into the top four following an unconvincing run of draws. They have drawn four consecutive league games for the first time in decades. However, a clinical midweek win in Marseille has raised morale among the travelling squad. The Reds currently boast a 10-match unbeaten run in the Premier League.

The visitors receive a massive boost with the return of their leading goalscorer. Notably, Mohamed Salah is primed to make his first league start since November. He recently returned from the Africa Cup of Nations, where Egypt finished fourth. Consequently, Slot has extra attacking firepower despite Federico Chiesa being a major doubt.
Alisson Becker will continue in goal behind a defence missing Ibrahima Konaté. Joe Gomez is expected to partner Virgil van Dijk at the heart of the defence. In midfield, Ryan Gravenberch and Curtis Jones could provide the necessary control. Florian Wirtz and Dominik Szoboszlai will support Hugo Ekitiké, who has scored eight league goals this season.
