Both Bukayo Saka and Jurrien Timber return from injury to take their places in the starting lineup at the Emirates Stadium.

Saka missed our last two matches after suffering a hamstring injury while on national duty, and Timber recovered from his groin problem after the last three matches.

However, both Riccardo Calafiori, who was injured against Shakhtar Donetsk, and William Saliba, who was suspended for one match after receiving a red card against Bournemouth, are missing.

This means that, ahead of David Raya in goal, the back four consists of Thomas Partey, Ben White, Gabriel and Timber.

Declan Rice is accompanied by Mikel Merino and Leandro Trossard in the midfield, while Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz are in the front row.

With Martin Odegaard still unavailable, Saka gets the armband.

The guest team does not have Diogo Jota, who was injured in the last league match against Chelsea, and Darwin Nunez comes instead. After the 2-1 win, they made two more changes; Alexis Mac Allister replaced Dominic Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz replaced Cody Gakpo.

Arsenal: Raya, Partey, White, Gabriel, Timber, Rice, Merinos, Trossard, Saka, Martinelli, Havertz. Substitutes: Neto, Zinchenko, Kiwior, Nichols, Myles-Skelly, Jorginho, Nwaneri, Sterling, Jesus.

Liverpool: Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson, Jones, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Diaz, Salah, Nunez. Substitutes: Jaros, Davies, Gomez, Endo, Szoboszlai, Gakpo, Tsimikas, Quansah, Morton.
