Liverpool will have some new signings in their squad for the clash against Bournemouth including Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez and Giorgi Mamardashvili.
Slot will be without at least one key player for the clash against Bournemouth, with Ryan Gravenberch sidelined due to suspension. Conor Bradley and Joe Gomez are fitness doubts for the fixture, having missed the Community Shield with injury.
