PREM: Liverpool v Arsenal preview


Liverpool v Arsenal preview

Liverpool and Arsenal have the chance to turnaround their faltering top-four challenges when they meet at Anfield on Saturday evening.


Leicester took advantage of a sloppy Liverpool performance on Monday, meaning Jurgen Klopp's men have won just one of their last seven league matches taking just six points from a possible 21.

Arsenal, who are one point ahead of Liverpool in fourth but do have a game in hand, will be undertaking their first Premier League game for 21 days after cup commitments.

The Gunners have only lost one of their last nine visits to Anfield.
 
Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren is set to return.

The centre-back has been sidelined for almost five weeks with a knee injury but has returned to full training.

Striker Daniel Sturridge, having recovered from a virus, is out for at least another week with a hip muscle strain.

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson remains absent with a foot injury.
 
Arsenal welcome back both Aaron Ramsey and Laurent Koscielny.

Ramsey has been missing for the last four games with a calf problem but is now in contention to line up for the Gunners at Anfield as is Koscielny, who missed the FA Cup win over Sutton with a thigh injury suffered in the 5-1 defeat at Bayern Munich. Danny Welbeck is also in contention to feature at Anfield after being left out of the squad for the Sutton match due to concerns about the non-league's side artificial surface.

Santi Cazorla (Achilles) is a long-term absentee while fellow midfielder Mohamed Elneny (ankle) is expected to be out for three weeks.
