Siva: Bournemouth are bound for Europe, no doubt about that. They play with pace, strength and clear direction. They gave Liverpool a run and if the crossbar and posts were a couple of centimetres longer, they would have drawn this game. Well played, Bournemouth - take Europe by storm.

Liverpool take on Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium. The Reds are looking to strengthen their chokehold atop the Premier League table.

An away clash at Bournemouth might not have been underlined as a major obstacle in Liverpool's pursuit of the Premier League title but Saturday's clash on the south coast suddenly looks anything but a relaxed trip to the seaside.
