Predicted Liverpool XI: Bournemouth (H)

After disappointing defeats in the league and the FA Cup, Liverpool will hope to return to winning ways when they face Bournemouth at Anfield in an exciting league fixture on Saturday.

Despite a mauling loss at Watford last week, Jurgen Klopp’s men still are 22 points ahead of nearest challengers Manchester City.

So, it is understood that they are going to get the required four wins to wrap up the Premier League title.

However, with a crunch second leg of the last-16 tie in the Champions League against Atletico Madrid coming up next Wednesday, winning this weekend is vital to gain momentum.

It won’t be easy though, as Bournemouth are coming into this game off the back of an encouraging display against Chelsea last week. Eddie Howe’s men will try their best to challenge a slightly out-of-form Liverpool team.

In terms of team news for the Reds, captain Jordan Henderson has stepped up his recovery process from his hamstring injury, but is not available for Saturday.

Naby Keita has returned to full team training and could be in the squad.

That all being said, here’s how we think Klopp may line his XI up:
