Team News: Two changes for Liverpool against Bournemouth

Two changes for Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp has made two changes as Liverpool host Bournemouth this evening.

Ragnar Klavan and Divock Origi are the players to come into the lineup from the 3-1 win over Everton at the weekend.

Sadio Mane, whose season may well be over after picking up a knee injury from a challenge with Leighton Baines in the Merseyside derby on Saturday, and the benched Joel Matip are the men to make way.

Daniel Sturridge misses out on a start but is deemed fit enough for the bench after his return to training, while Emre Can has shaken off the back and knee issues he suffered against the Toffees and is able to start.

Eddie Howe has opted to make three changes to the Cherries side that played out a goalless draw with Southampton on Saturday.

Andrew Surman, sidelined with a knee ligament issue, drops out alongside Dan Gosling and Ryan Fraser, to be replaced by Jack Wilshere, Jordon Ibe and Harry Arter.

Tyrone Mings remains unavailable to the south coast side due to suspension.

Liverpool: Mignolet; Clyne, Lovren, Klavan, Milner; Can, Lucas, Wijnaldum; Coutinho, Firmino, Origi Subs: Karius, Moreno, Grujic, Woodburn, Matip, Sturridge, Alexander

Bournemouth: Boruc; Adam Smith, Francis, Cook, Daniels; Ibe, Arter, Wilshere, Pugh; King; Afobe Subs: Gradel, Brad Smith, Lewis Cook, Allsop, Fraser, Mousset, Cargill
