Liverpool vs Arsenal team news

Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson Becker did not even make it to half-time in Liverpool’s season opener against Norwich, coming off with a calf injury after just 39 minutes of his Premier League campaign.
He has a suspected grade two tear and is not expected to be fit for the Arsenal clash. Instead, deadline day signing Adrian will continue to deputise in goal.
Nathaniel Clyne and Naby Keita also remain unavailable.

For Arsenal, Granit Xhaka could return after missing the Burnley win due to ‘bruising to his lower back and leg’ while Mesut Ozil’s status remains unclear after the personal issues and illness which have marred his start to the Premier League season.
Rob Holding is back training with the first team and played for the Under-23s last week but has been out for eight months and is unlikely to be rushed back into top-flight action.
Hector Bellerin, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Kieran Tierney are all longer-term injury concerns.
