Liverpool may not be where they want to be in the table right now, but Saturday represents a real opportunity to strike a blow in their adjusted aims for the season.
With Manchester City the only other serious contenders for a Champions League place who are in action today, the Reds have a great chance to steal a march on the likes of Aston Villa, Manchester United and Chelsea if they can earn a win at a Bournemouth side who have been somewhat below par themselves this season.
The Cherries go into Saturday evening's clash in 15th, but Andoni Iraola's sode will be aiming to cause Liverpool as much trouble as they did [on the opening night of the season](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/liverpool-bournemouth-score-live-stream-32285919), when they came from two goals down to draw level at Anfield, albeit with a brace from [the now Manchester City winger Antoine Semenyo](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/antoine-semenyo-chose-man-city-33201312), before late strikes from Federico Chiesa and Mohamed Salah earned a 4-2 win for the reigning champions.
If we get anything like that level of entertainment tonight then it'll be a good watch, and guiding us through the action down at the Vitality Stadium will be Ian Doyle and Paul Gorst. Join us for the 5.30pm kick-off.
