Team News

Arsenal
With Saliba banned, Kieran Tierney out of the picture and Takehiro Tomiyasu sustaining a fresh knee setback, the last thing that Arteta needed on Tuesday evening was to lose another defender to injury - lo and behold, Riccardo Calafiori was forced off in the second half after an awkward fall.

Arteta immediately admitted that the Italian's condition was "not great", and he was not seen in training on Friday - nor were Jurrien Timber (muscle) or Bukayo Saka (hamstring).

Arteta refused to rule any of them out in his pre-game press conference, though, and his mind games with the media know no bounds, so there is every chance that at least two of them will be available for the game. The same cannot be said for Martin Odegaard, however.

Reports have suggested that Saka is hopeful of being fit for the visit of the Reds, where Kai Havertz could become the first Arsenal player since Thierry Henry to score in six successive Premier League home matches.
Arsenal possible starting lineup:
Raya; Timber, White, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Merino, Partey, Rice; Saka, Havertz, Martinelli

Liverpool
Of course, it is not just Arteta who is without a fundamental defensive figure, as Liverpool number one Alisson Becker remains out with a thigh injury, although Caoimhin Kelleher earned his keep in midweek with several top saves to keep Leipzig out.

Alisson is joined in the infirmary by Harvey Elliott (foot) and Diogo Jota (abdominal) - the latter's absence guarantees another start up front for Darwin Nunez - while Federico Chiesa and Conor Bradley are both uncertain.

Slot has a better kind of dilemma to solve on the left flank, where Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo are both vying for a start, but Jones's winner against Chelsea should not be enough to see him break up the established midfield order of Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister and a rejuvenated Ryan Gravenberch.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Nunez

Prediction: Arsenal 0-0 Liverpool
