Liverpool vs Bournemouth

Jurgen Klopp has named two changes to his lineup for Liverpool’s clash with Leicester City at Anfield.

Liverpool host Claude Puel’s side on Wednesday night as they look to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table to seven points.

The Reds have been plagued with injury worries of late, however the boss has named a formidable side to take on the Foxes.

Gini Wijnaldum returns to the starting lineup after overcoming a knee injury, whilst Xherdan Shaqiri also comes in to the side.

Jordan Henderson is expected to play at right-back, whilst Wijnaldum and Naby Keita and should play alongside Shaqiri in midfield.

Substitutes: Mignolet, Fabinho, Lovren, Sturridge, Lallana, Origi, Camacho.
