Liverpool lineup vs. Bournemouth: Predicted XI for Premier League clash as Arne Slot rings changes

Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah will be bidding to hit another Premier League milestone when the Reds face Bournemouth in Saturday's Premier League showdown at the Vitality Stadium.

The Egypt international netted his 176th Premier League goal in last weekend's 4-1 win over Ipswich Town, a strike that saw him surpass Thierry Henry in the competition's all-time scoring charts.

Salah needs just one more strike to draw level with Frank Lampard's 177 in the Premier League, but he has only netted once in his last five appearances against Bournemouth, having previously scored in each of his first six.

Nevertheless, the 32-year-old is set to be one of many big-hitters to return to the Liverpool XI this weekend, as Arne Slot inevitably named a second-string XI for Wednesday's 3-2 Champions League loss to PSV Eindhoven.

Cody Gakpo - scorer of a penalty at his old home in midweek - is one of only two starters from the defeat to PSV that should reprise their roles, as Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz prepare for attacking recalls.

The well-rested Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch will be back at the base of midfield too, and the only other midweek starter set to go again is Andy Robertson, who will revert to a familiar left-back role after operating centrally in Eindhoven.

Alisson Becker, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate will rejoin Robertson in defence, where Joe Gomez might also earn some minutes after returning to training following a hamstring problem.

Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Diaz
