Liverpool’s line-up for the match against Bournemouth includes Alexis Mac Allister and key formation choices.

 

Predicted starting XI for Liverpool versus Bournemouth: Salah continues in the lineup; Konate is absent.

 

Mohamed Salah is set to keep his place in the starting eleven as Liverpool faces Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium this Saturday. The team is looking to get back to winning form in the Premier League as they clash with Bournemouth on Saturday evening. Arne Slot has reported no new injury issues ahead of this match.

 

Ibrahima Konate is still unavailable due to a family bereavement. The French defender joins Giovanni Leoni (knee), Conor Bradley (knee), and Alexander Isak (leg) on the injury list.

 

Moreover, Slot has been concerned about Federico Chiesa’s fitness after the Italian forward missed the UEFA Champions League match against Marseille due to an injury. During his pre-match press conference, the Dutch manager provided updates regarding Chiesa and Konate.

 

The Liverpool manager stated, “Federico wasn’t able to be on the bench on Wednesday. There was a recovery session yesterday, so we have to wait and see today. It’s difficult for me to say whether he is available for Bournemouth. We don’t expect him to be out for long, so it would be 50/50 maybe if he is available for tomorrow.”

 

“I have spoken to [Konate] a few times. I believe these are private matters and should remain between us. It’s clear that when something like this occurs, a player needs time to support his family and also time for himself.”

 

“As for the rest, at this moment, no one has picked up an injury, and no one had any issues after the last game, but sometimes when training resumes, you might feel something.

 

However, I anticipate that all the same players will be available for tomorrow, and Calvin Ramsay, who is unavailable for the Champions League, will be available for the Premier League, adding another option to our squad.

 

Alisson Becker is the automatic choice in goal, as Liverpool sets up in a 4-2-3-1 formation against Bournemouth on Saturday. The defense will consist of Jeremie Frimpong, Joe Gomez, Virgil van Dijk, and Milos Kerkez.

 

In the midfield, Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Gravenberch will form the double pivot, while Alexis Mac Allister will take on the no. 10 position. Up front, Hugo Ekitike will spearhead the attack for the away team against Bournemouth, with Mohamed Salah and Florian Wirtz rounding out the offensive lineup.

 

Predicted Liverpool XI: Alisson; Frimpong, Gomez, van Dijk, Kerkez; Szoboszlai, Gravenberch; Salah, Mac Allister, Wirtz; Ekitike
