Liverpool will clash with Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon as they welcome the Reds to Anfield, looking to climb up the Premier League table sitting in the ninth position below them. The Reds have only secured 2 points from the three matches they’ve played so far after conceding a poor 2-1 loss against Manchester United in their previous fixture. Similarly, the newly promoted Championship club lost 3-0 to Arsenal as they swept them off.
Jurgen Klopp will deploy the 4-3-3 formation with minimal changes as he looks to secure a win desperately in this home encounter.
4-3-3 Liverpool Predicted Lineup Vs Bournemouth
Defence
Alisson Becker would operate in between the sticks for the upcoming clash as the Brazilian shot-stopper would hope to secure a clean sheet after conceding two goals against the Red Devils in the last match.
Joe Gomez will form the centre-half partnership with Virgil van Dijk at the heart of Liverpool’s backline as the former provides cover for an injured Joel Matip.
Andrew Robertson is a guaranteed starter at the left wing-back position, whereas Trent Alexander-Arnold will fill in on the other flank as the right wing-back. The full-backs will be expected to stretch the opposition as they will be allowed to go forward.
Midfield
Fabinho might start in the holding midfield position occupying a more defensive role to shield his backline and cutting passing lanes for his opponents.
James Milner and Harvey Elliott will slot into the central midfield roles. The duo would be determined to create more chances in front of the goal and distribute the ball more efficiently.
Naby Keita and Jordan Henderson will take to the bench as they look to create an impact in the latter half if required.
Attack
Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah will take up the wide positions, playing on the left and right-wing, respectively, as they try to provide support from the wide areas.
Roberto Firmino will lead the line against Bournemouth this weekend as the Brazilian forward fancies his chances of finding the back of the net.
