  "account": "Liverpool will face Bournemouth in the Premier League on Sunday without any new injury concerns, following their victory in the League Cup on Tuesday. The Reds had played on Tuesday, while Bournemouth had a shorter recovery period after their Europa League win over Real Sociedad.\n\nDespite Liverpool's win, key players Conor Bradley, Federico Chiesa, Hugo Ekitike, and Giovanni Leoni remain unavailable for selection. While all are on a slow return from long-term injuries except for Chiesa, no specific return dates were provided.\n\nJoe Gomez, who did not suffer an injury during Tuesday’s match, was substituted for tactical reasons and could potentially make his 300th appearance for the team if he features in the upcoming match. Gomez started the game as Liverpool's captain.",
