Starting XI: How should Liverpool line up against Arsenal?

By Adam Brown – @AdamMNViAn emphatic 7-2 win against Lincoln City takes the Reds into the first of two back-to-back games against the Gunners.Arsenal are much improved since Mikel Arteta took charge. The Spaniard has added stability to a side known for struggling against top teams.Liverpool’s last two games against the North London side have had little meaning; a defeat at the Emirates after being crowned league champions and a community shield loss on penalties at Wembley. Monday night will be different as the Reds look to continue a perfect start to the campaign.Joe Gomez has returned to training but it’s unlikely Klopp will move Fabinho after pocketing Timo Werner at Stamford Bridge. The Brazilian should start this one – especially with Thiago able to start in the six in place of Jordan Henderson who is unavailable after picking up a knock against Chelsea.

Here’s how we should line up:The starting defence return. It was disappointing to see some of the negative comments surrounding Neco Williams against Lincoln – we can’t expect Trent-Esque performances from a player with much less experience.Thiago comes in for Jordan Henderson. Keita and Wijnaldum form what could be Liverpool’s best-attacking midfield set up.Minamino is on fire since the return of the new season and making a case to play on a more regular basis. The Japanese star will likely be Klopp’s first substitute if the game is struggling for goals. For now, the front three will remain the same for the start of the game.While a trickier game than usual, the Reds should have enough to secure the three points. A Thiago masterclass is incoming.Score prediction: Liverpool 3 – 1 ArsenalBy Adam Brown @AdamMNViHow does Chris think Liverpool will line up for this one?
