Undefeated Liverpool are looking for a fifth straight Premier League victory as they visit AFC Bournemouth, who are seeking to build on Tuesday's home win over Huddersfield Town and climb into the top six.

Team news

AFC Bournemouth midfielder Dan Gosling (knee) will miss the weekend's match.

Lewis Cook has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a knee injury.

Liverpool will be without Joe Gomez, who fractured his leg during the win at Burnley on Wednesday, for up to six weeks.

Sadio Mane (foot) is a doubt, but Andrew Robertson (thigh) is available after being rested in midweek.

However, Dejan Lovren (concussion), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (knee), Nathaniel Clyne (knock) and Dominic Solanke (groin) are all out.

Did you know?

AFC Bournemouth's Callum Wilson has scored eight goals in his 15 PL matches this season. He last scored more in a league campaign in 2014/15, with 20 goals in 45 Championship fixtures when the Cherries were promoted.

Liverpool have triumphed in four of their six PL matches against AFC Bournemouth and won both of last season’s meetings by an aggregate score of 7-0.

Alisson has remained unbeaten in his opening 15 PL matches as a Liverpool player, equalling the PL club record set by Javier Mascherano in November 2007. He could now move ahead of the Argentinian and set a new mark.

James Milner could make his 500th PL appearance in this match, becoming the 13th player to reach this landmark. He would become the second youngest to do so, aged 32 years 338 days, behind only Gareth Barry.
