Match Preview : Liverpool vs Arsenal

Liverpool need a response after losing to Leicester on Monday. Defeat here could see them drop down to sixth if Manchester United beat Bournemouth earlier in the day and that would be a disaster for Jurgen Klopp’s side.

Arsenal have not played in two weeks and will be well rested here, although that could also go against them here. Arsene Wenger needs a win here to relieve some of the pressure from the Arsenal fans.

The last two matches between the sides at Anfield have ended in a draw and another stalemate could be on the cards here, although that result would only suit United. NaijaBet

Team News

Liverpool – Jordan Henderson is unlikely to recover from a foot injury in time to face Arsenal on Saturday, but Dejan Lovren has been cleared of a knee injury and could return to first-team action this weekend.

Marko Grujic has returned to training but isn’t expected back soon having not featured since November.

Arsenal – Mohamed Elneny is wearing a protective boot and now faces a spell on the sidelines. Granit Xhaka could make his first league appearance in over a month here after serving his four-match suspension.

Arsene Wenger has been managing Danny Welbeck’s return from long-term injury by playing him in the U23s but he will be hoping to play in these big games.

Laurent Koscielny should have recovered from the hamstring injury he picked up two weeks ago against Bayern Munich. Aaron Ramsey is also back in contention but may have to settle for a place on the bench.

Mesut Ozil, however, is a doubt after picking up an illness in midweek. His absence could see Iwobi move inside and Welbeck come into the starting XI.
