[Teams] Liverpool vs Bournemouth: Confirmed Line-Ups

Liverpool will look to cement their position in the top four when they entertain Bournemouth at Anfield this evening.

Jurgen Klopp is without a number of first team players with Joel Matip the latest casualty as he drops to the bench due to a back problem. Ragnar Klaven starts in defence in place of the Cameroonian.

Sadio Mane joins Adam Lallana and Jordan Henderson on the sidelines while Lucas Leiva continues in the holding role and Divock Origi comes in to the attack after scoring from the bench at the weekend.

Daniel Sturridge returns to the squad after recovering from a hip injury but he’s only named on the bench while Emre Can is fit to start alongside Gini Wijnaldum in midfield.

Here are the line-ups:

Liverpool

Mignolet, Clyne, Lovren, Klavan, Milner, Lucas, Can, Wijnaldum, Coutinho, Firmino, Origi

Subs: Karius, Moreno, Alexander-Arnold, Grujic, Woodburn, Matip, Sturridge

Bournemouth

Boruc, Smith, Francis, Cook, Daniels, Ibe, Arter, Wilshere, Pugh, King; Afobe.

Subs: Allsop, Cargill, Smith, Cook, Fraser, Gradel, Mousset.
