Twitter-Liverpool FC
LIV vs BOU Dream11 Match Preview: It’s been tough times recently for league leaders, Liverpool as they were recently a subject to three consecutive defeats in all competitions. It was Atletico Madrid who nicked a 1-0 win at home in the first leg of the Round of 16 against Liverpool, which was soon followed by a 3-0 thumping to Watford in what was their first-ever defeat in the league this season. It was then followed by an FA Cup exit by the hands of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. In spite all said and done, Liverpool are the firm favourites to lift the Premier League title as they reside comfortably at the top with 79 points.
For their next opposition, The Reds will play host to AFC Bournemouth who stood tall to Chelsea over the weekend and got a draw out of them after 90 minutes. Eddie Howe’s Bournemouth unit is currently in the danger zone with 18 points and a draw or even a win could keep them safe for the time being.
Match Details
Date- Saturday, March 7
Kick-Off- 6:00 PM (IST)
Venue- Anfield
Liverpool
Jordan Henderson remains on the sidelines due to injury for the hosts and his absence has sorely been missed by Jurgen Klopp. Alisson Becker has sustained yet another injury lately and should make way for Adrian to keep between the sticks. Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohammed Salah and Roberto Firmino didn’t start in the FA Cup defeat to Chelsea but should all be back in the team sheet here. Alex Oxlade Chamberlain is also likely to continue in central midfield alongside Fabinho and Gini Wijnaldum.
Bournemouth
Harry Wilson who was brought in on loan from Liverpool can not be a part of the matchday squad due to the terms in the agreement. Ryan Fraser is likely to come in as a replacement. Fraser is expected to be accompanied by Joshua King and Callum Wilson to lead the attack, while Billing, Lerma, and Cook play in behind. Lloyd Kelly, Chris Mepham, Charlie Daniels and David Brooks are on the sidelines due to injury.
