There are only a couple of decisions to make and I'm going to give Andy Robertson the nod at left-back in favour of Kostas Tsimikas as Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold all return.

In midfield, Dominik Szoboszlai is named at the tip of the midfield three and there are starts for Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch.

My team (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Nunez.

Ian Doyle - Nunez loves it against Bournemouth

After the game that didn't matter comes a match that has very real consequences for Liverpool at Bournemouth.

Alisson Becker returns a right-back, Ibrahima Konate and skipper Virgil van Dijk are the centre-backs with Andy Robertson shifting back into his usual left-back role.

In midfield, it's back to the tried and trusted for much of this season, which means Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister in the deeper roles and Dominik Szoboszlai as the number 10.

And up top, Darwin Nunez scored three times at Bournemouth last season and in the home game this term, so he can lead the line with Mohamed Salah on the right and Cody Gakpo on the left.

My team (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Nunez.

Theo Squires - Diaz leads the line and Tsimikas keeps place

Having made nine changes against PSV Eindhoven, and left 12 senior players at home, Arne Slot is certain to restore the rested cavalry for Liverpool’s trip to Bournemouth.

With his options potentially bolstered by the returns of Diogo Jota, Joe Gomez and Darwin Nunez, he has a strong hand to pick from.

Kostas Tsimikas might have completed the full 90 minutes against PSV, but I’d keep him at left-back ahead of Andy Robertson as Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk and Alisson Becker return to make up the back five.

It’s all change in midfield with Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai restored to make up the engine-room.

In attack, Cody Gakpo keeps his place on the left after being taken off early in the second half against his former club.

And Mohamed Salah returns to complete the XI.

My team (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Diaz.

The Scot, one suspects, will get the nod.

In midfield, the rested legs of Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai will be needed.

And up top I'd go for Luis Diaz down the middle instead of Nunez or Jota, who are both great options from the bench.

My team (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Diaz.
