That means Fabinho is restored to midfield alongside Naby Keita and Gini Wijnaldum with Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino all starting against Mikel Arteta’s men.

Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Keita; Salah, Mane, Firmino.
Subs: Adrian, Milner, Jones, Minamino, Jota, Origi, Williams.
