On the evening of 9th October, Arsenal would be taking on Liverpool at the Emirates, their third Premier League derby after Manchester United and Tottenham. As a rebuilt, well-knitted Arsenal would be looking to carry forward their red-hot form, Jurgen Klopp would definitely want his last season UCL finalist to bounce back from a clumsy start to their season.
Mohammad Salah.
Though this prolific right winger has been underperforming this season according to his standards, surely his threat from the right-hand side can't be erased from his mind when playing against Liverpool. He might find the net tonight with a curler from his left foot after his famous cut-ins.
Roberto Firmino.
The Brazilian might be the favorite to start over Darwin Nunez, as after falling out of favor from Klop's first 11, he has been performing exceptionally well and has been able to find the net 5 times this season. You might see him scoring today as well.
Luis Diaz
This young left winger will surely be trying to live up to his market value of 75 million. He would be making those twists and turns today, to produce the threats of key passes and goal-scoring opportunities from that left wing.
Thiago.
He would be the key man today to produce the key passes and goal-scoring opportunities from the midfield.
Firmino.
All responsibilities will be on his shoulder today to, properly recycle the ball, provide stability to Liverpool's midfield and win duels in the midfield.
Trent-Alexander Arnold.
On the right hand, we can expect him to provide all kinds of creativity by linking up the play, making those overlapping runs, providing crosses, and also fulfilling his defensive duties.
Gabriel Jesus.
He has been phenomenal after he signed for Arsenal. Teams are finding it difficult to contain him. You would see him dropping down, helping in Arsenal's quick linkup play and transitions.
Odegaard
He has been the key man for Arsenal this season playing the N0. 10 roles, providing key defense-splitting goalscoring passing to the forwards. He would be the creative CAM for Arsenal today.
Saka.
A promising winger for Arsenal would be a key man for Arsenal on the right wing in the seasons to come. He has got lots of footwork and is a potential goal-scoring threat for any opponent. He and Jesus might score even a brace due to the form Liverpool is in.
