Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Arsenal

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Arsenal on Saturday.

Liverpool will hope to avoid dropping out of the top four of the Premier League table when they welcome Arsenal to Anfield on Saturday evening.

Jurgen Klopp's men were outfought in a 3-2 defeat to West Ham United before the international break - their first defeat in any competition this season.

The Reds are clinging onto fourth spot in the table but are now six points behind leaders Chelsea, and they will be usurped by Arsenal should they suffer defeat to the Gunners.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
