Raya, Gabriel And Konsa To Start | 4-2-3-1 Arsenal Predicted Lineup Vs Liverpool
· Yahoo Sports
Arsenal will lock horns with Liverpool at Anfield this Sunday as they look to secure a good result on the road in the Premier League. The Gunners suffered a loss on penalties away at Fleetwood Town in the EFL Cup recently, so they would be desperate to bounce back with a win this weekend.
Mikel Arteta will opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation once again and is expected to make a lot of tweaks to his first team for this clash. David Raya, Gabriel and Ezri Konsa could all play from the start of this game.

4-2-3-1 Arsenal Predicted Lineup To Face Liverpool
Defence
David Raya will feature in goal for the North London club after being rested in midweek. Gabriel will function alongside Ezri Konsa at the heart of the Arsenal backline as they try to keep the Liverpool attackers frustrated throughout the 90 minutes.
Ben White will try to put in a solid display at right-back, while Riccardo Calafiori looks to give a good account of himself as the left-back if he can pass a late fitness test. Both of them will have to pick and choose their moments to join in on the attack.
Cristhian Mosquera will offer cover for the centre-back positions on the bench.

Midfield
Bruno Guimaraes and Declan Rice, who is a slight concern ahead of this game, will anchor the midfield for the North London club as they look to win the 50-50 battles in the middle of the park and orchestrate some decent chances in the final third.
The talented trio of Eberechi Eze, Martin Odegaard and Noni Madueke, who is a doubt for this game, will operate just ahead of them as part of Arteta’s attack. All three of them need to be at their best if the Gunners are to come out on top this weekend.
Martin Zubimendi, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Mikel Merino will be named on the bench as they await their chance to shine in the second half if required.
Kai Havertz will spearhead Arsenal’s attack up top. He has to find a way to be a real threat on the offensive third of the pitch.
Viktor Gyokeres will have to be content with a spot on the bench and might come on to influence the game in the final quarter if the Gunners are in need of a goal by then.
