The Reds are set to play their final game before the three-week international break, with Andoni Iraola preparing to face his former club.
Following an emphatic midweek victory against Tottenham in the Carabao Cup, Liverpool will be hoping to build on that result with another victory today.
A win is much needed for the Basque manager’s side, who have picked up just one victory so far in their Premier League campaign.
This fixture last season was full of drama, with the hosts scoring a 95th-minute winner to claim all three points.
Iraola will be hoping his return to the Vitality Stadium produces a different outcome this time around, with Liverpool looking to leave Bournemouth with all three points.
