Arsenal will look to seal their first Premier League victory at Anfield in 11 years when they travel to face Liverpool on Sunday.

The Gunners are flying at the top of the table but have famously struggled on their visits to Liverpool, although Mikel Arteta's title hopefuls will surely see this as another barrier to break down in their quest for success.

Here's how the boss could set up.


Arsenal predicted lineup vs Liverpool (4-2-3-1)

GK: Aaron Ramsdale - No team has scored more goals against Ramsdale than Liverpool (19) during his career.

RB: Ben White - White will have to be at this best to deal with the chaos that is Darwin Nunez.

CB: Rob Holding - Arteta teased the return of one injured star here. He may not have been talking about William Saliba, however, so expect Holding to start.

CB: Gabriel - The unsung hero of Arsenal's defence, Gabriel will not be scared to come up against Cody Gakpo.

LB: Oleksandr Zinchenko - Zinchenko's wanders into midfield could cause major problems for a Liverpool side in their weakest position.

DM: Granit Xhaka - Arteta has praised Xhaka for 'clicking' in front of goal this season.

DM: Thomas Partey - The Ghanaian has been an integral part of Arsenal's push for glory this season and will fancy his chances up against Liverpool's shaky midfield.

RM: Bukayo Saka - After succumbing to an illness, Saka is back and should be straight back into the lineup.

AM: Martin Odegaard - The Norway international has finally found the home he has been looking for since he was 15 years old, and that comfort has led to some sensational performances.

LM: Leandro Trossard - Few players in England are in better form than Trossard, who will be licking his lips at the prospect of facing the under-pressure Trent Alexander-Arnold.

ST: Gabriel Jesus - Perhaps Eddie Nketiah could be the mystery returnee? Either way, it's likely Jesus will start.
