Liverpool’s Arsenal Test Could Be Won Before Kickoff

Sunday’s visit of Arsenal to Anfield looks like one of those games that gets decided by the medical room as much as the dugout. Both sides head into the weekend carrying genuine fitness concerns, and the team with more bodies available is likely to have the edge regardless of what happens tactically.

Arsenal have had some positive news on that front. Mikel Arteta has confirmed Riccardo Calafiori, Declan Rice and Christos Tzolis are back in training after a midweek Carabao Cup exit to Fleetwood Town, a result that came with its own cost.

Max Dowman was sent off in that game and will sit out the weekend, and Arsenal were already without Calafiori, Rice, Tzolis, Noni Madueke, Bukayo Saka and William Saliba when they lost.
