Arne Slot will want to see his Liverpool side build on a fine 3-0 Champions League victory at Marseille.

Liverpool travel to Bournemouth on Saturday evening after a Champions League victory over Marseille, but they have drawn their last four games in the Premier League.

While the Reds are unbeaten in December and January, Arne Slot will be keen for his side to start picking up three points as opposed to one.

The Cherries, meanwhile, have managed just a single victory since the end of October, beating Tottenham 3-2 in their last home game.

Team news

Bournemouth playmaker David Brooks is a doubt with an ankle injury, while Enes Unal is out with a muscle issue.

Tyler Adams and Ben Gannon-Doak are expected to be sidelined until late February.

Mohamed Salah is set to feature in the Premier League for the first time in a month having returned from international duty with Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Ibrahima Konate may return to the starting line-up after missing the win over Marseille due to personal reasons, although Slot may opt to keep Joe Gomez alongside Virgil Van Dijk.

Conor Bradley is out for the season, while Alexander Isak is also sidelined after breaking his leg.

The stats

Bournemouth have conceded at a rate of three goals per game against Liverpool in the Premier League, letting in 52 in 17 games – no side have netted more taking on the Cherries (Man City have also scored 52).

The Merseysiders have drawn four straight matches in the Premier League, having previously won three in a row

Eight of Bournemouth's last eight matches across all competitions have seen both teams to score – the Cherries have kept just one clean sheet since the start of November and have conceded more goals (30) in that time than any other side in the Premier League

The Reds have won 12 of their last 13 Premier League matches against Bournemouth, losing 1-0 at the Vitality Stadium in March 2023.

Prediction

Liverpool head to Bournemouth on Saturday evening much improved compared to earlier in the season, but are still struggling when it comes to finding a ruthless edge to beat teams.

The Reds have not lost since November but their unbeaten record is not so impressive when you consider the team have drawn their last four Premier League games.

Beating Marseille in the Champions League will have boosted confidence and Slot's side should have enough quality to beat a home side who have won just one game since October following a strong start to the season.

While the Cherries are underdogs heading into this game, they should at least get on the scoresheet.

Backing both teams to find the net could prove a smart move as Bournemouth's last eight games have seen the hosts and their opponents score.

Liverpool score at a rate of three goals a game against the Cherries and should continue that run to pick up an important three points.
