(Reuters) - Liverpool have regained some consistency in the Premier League in recent games but the squad cannot take that confidence for granted in their quest for a top-four spot, manager Juergen Klopp said on Friday.

Liverpool reignited their top-four hopes with a 7-0 thrashing of old rivals Manchester United last week, moving up to fifth place to sit three points behind Tottenham Hotspur above them.

"There's no better mood booster than a good game for us, you see it in training. We had consistency in the league in the last five games, but confidence is a fragile little flower and we have to make sure we keep that," Klopp told reporters. Klopp said the south-coast club can cause teams problems with the way they play after nearly coming away from league leaders Arsenal with a point in a 3-2 defeat.

While Liverpool can provisionally move up to fourth on goal difference if they win, a victory for Bournemouth would lift their hopes of survival with the bottom nine teams separated by just six points.
