Liverpool are aiming to go five points clear of the chasing pack in the Premier League when they travel to Bournemouth on Sunday.
Arsenal's 5-0 thrashing of Crystal Palace moved them level on points with Manchester City, two behind the Reds having played a game more than both their rivals.
Champions City are on their winter break this week, giving Jurgen Klopp's men the chance to pull away for the time being.
Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke is likely to be the main threat to his old club, having scored 12 Premier League goals this season. Only Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah have scored more, with the latter unavailable to Liverpool today due to being on Africa Cup of Nations Duty with Egypt.
