When the two sides met at The Vitality Stadium/Dean Court back on December 4th, Liverpool were four points behind Chelsea with a game in hand and were unbeaten in 11 matches in the league.

30 minutes later and Bournemouth had sealed a remarkable comeback with Nathan Ake scoring a 93rd minute winner for the Cherries.
