Here we go with a live blog fine fellow Gooners.
Wenger has opted for youth in defence with both Holding and Chambers starting today. A big gamble if you ask me, but let’s get behind the boys.
In midfield, Arsene has gone for steel and PL experience with Coquelin being pared up with the reliable and defence-minded Elneny. Will we see Xhaka come on later on?
Up front we start with Theo as our CF? and Alexis and Ox on the wings, with Rambo in the hole. Or will it be Alexis up front and Theo on the right? I am going for the latter.
This is the line-up:
Subs: Ospina, Gibbs, Wilshere, Xhaka, Cazorla, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Akpom
Liverpool XI: Mignolet, Clyne, Lovren, Klavan, Moreno, Henderson, Lallana, Wijnaldum, Mane, Coutinho, Firmino
Subs: Manninger, Can, Origi, Matip, Stewart, Grujic, Alexander-Arnold
