From the source
Arsenal’s trip to Anfield on Sunday comes at a difficult time. Bukayo Saka is out for at least six weeks, Christos Tzolis is still sidelined, and Mikel Arteta revealed after Tuesday’s shock Carabao Cup exit at Fleetwood Town that Noni Madueke has an ankle problem, putting him in doubt for Sunday.
That leaves Arsenal very short of options on the right, and things got worse late on at Highbury, when 16-year-old Max Dowman was sent off for kicking out after a heavy tackle from Harrison Neal.
A straight red card for violent conduct usually brings a three-match domestic ban, which would rule him out of the trip to Liverpool. But Arsenal aren’t prepared to accept that just yet.
