Hardly a classic, but the Reds are cruising.
A spirited Bournemouth held Liverpool – fielding their strongest available line-up – blank for the opening period at Dean Court, before Luis Suarez found Victor Moses on the left.
The winger, who has failed to make much of an impression at Anfield since joining on loan from the Blues, cut in and fired low past Lee Camp in the Bournemouth goal.
Daniel Sturridge, having had a quiet game, then made it 2-0 after being set up by Suarez on the hour mark.
