Iraola returns to Bournemouth with Liverpool, as Calvert-Lewin chases Leeds history

Andoni Iraola returns to his former club on Sunday (2pm BST) as Liverpool make the trip to the south coast. Iraola, who watched Bournemouth's European bow from afar in San Sebastián, led the Dorset side to their best-ever finish — sixth — and a Europa League place, earning him the Liverpool job. A warm welcome is guaranteed, though his assistants Tommy Elphick and Shaun Cooper — the former captained Bournemouth into the Premier League in 2015 — will brace for an all-action contest. Bournemouth's slow start under Iraola's successor Marco Rose belies their threat; Eddie Howe failed to beat the Cherries in eight league games with Newcastle.

Calvert-Lewin: man on a mission

Dominic Calvert-Lewin will aim to make history when Leeds host Crystal Palace at Elland Road on Saturday. Daniel Farke's centre-forward hopes to become the first Leeds player to score in six consecutive home league games since Arthur Hydes in 1932.

Farke's switch to 3-5-2 late last November proved a road-to-Damascus moment for the striker, who had struggled as a lone frontman but began scoring freely once paired with Noah Okafor or Lukas Nmecha. Calvert-Lewin has stressed the importance of attacking partnerships as Leeds alternate between 3-5-2, 3-4-3 and a back four.
