I expect him to come back for Andy Robertson Kostas Tsimikas on the left side of the defense and we know Caoimhin Kelleher will continue to replace pt Alisson Becker in the gate. Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk they form quite a fearsome partnership in the middle, while Trent Alexander-Arnold was superb defensively against Chelsea.

In midfield, the big question is whether or not Curtis Jones is recalled after missing the starting line-up for Wednesday’s trip to RB Leipzig amid his outstanding performance against Chelsea in Anfield.

This could still be a game for Dominik Szoboszlai’s running power. The Hungary captain spoke of doing the “dirty work” in midfield earlier this week and such a performance will again be needed to help stifle Arsenal’s midfield and deny them the wind in their sails. Alexis McAllister and Ryan Gravenberch both start.

Above, Luis Diaz replaces Cody Gakpo. The former always seems to cause the Gunners problems with his direct running style so he almost gets the nod over Gakpo who is having a good season himself. Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah start.

My team (4-2-3-1): Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Nunez.

Another day, another attempt at Arne Slot’s impressive start to the season. And they don’t come much tougher than title contenders Arsenal at the Emirates.

So what’s the Liverpool boss to do? After making a number of midweek changes, perhaps it’s time to keep the rotation to a minimum, especially with an expected overhaul in League Cup match at Brighton on Wednesday.

Caomhin Kelleher remains between the sticks and should be the only change in defence Andy Robertson returning to left back. Trent Alexander-Arnold stays at right back with Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate central defenders.

In midfield, Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister remains as a double pivot with his physique Dominik Szoboszlai needed in role number 10.

And up, Cody Gakpo he did enough to keep his place with Darwin Nunez in the middle and Mohamed Salah once again on the right.

My team (4-2-3-1): Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Nunez.

All eyes will be on the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon as Liverpool and Arsenal look to prove their Premier League title credentials by securing a vital three points in a clash at the top of the table.

For Arne Slot, there will be more selection dilemmas to deal with ahead of the Reds’ toughest test of the Premier League season so far.

But one of those decisions will not come in defense as Caoimhin Kelleher continues to deputize admirably for Alisson Becker between the sticks, while his hopes of earning a second free slot of the week are boosted by Andy Robertson’s return to the line background.

In midfield, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch keep their places despite starting at Leipzig just days ago, while Dominik Szoboszlai’s impressive work rate and tenacity of late is enough to see him get nod at Curtis Jones.

In attack, Mohamed Salah continues his record as the Premier League’s ever-present man as he starts alongside Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz.

My team (4-3-3): Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Salah, Nunez, Diaz.
