Champions Liverpool are aiming to win for the fifth time in London this season, maintaining their 100 per cent record in the capital.

Arsenal are targeting a first victory over the Reds in 10 attempts, last triumphing in April 2015.

Arsenal report no new injuries but are without Eddie Nketiah (suspended), while Mesut Ozil (back) will be assessed. 

Bernd Leno, Gabriel Martinelli, Calum Chambers (all knee) and Pablo Mari (ankle) remain sidelined.

Jurgen Klopp has no fresh injury concerns but James Milner (muscle) is set to miss out again.

Arsenal’s Alexandre Lacazette has scored two goals in his last three Premier League appearances, as many as in his previous 14. But they have both come away from home, after a run of 10 consecutive PL goals at Emirates Stadium.

Since Mikel Arteta’s first match in charge in December, Arsenal have dropped more points from winning positions than any other Premier League team, with 15.
