Liverpool XI vs Arsenal: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League today

Reigning Player of the Season Szoboszlai has been bothered by a persistent hamstring injury since the international break and lasted just 32 minutes on his return to action at Brentford earlier this month, sitting out five of the last six matches in total.Summer signing Munoz scored in that game but has not played since due to a right knee problem sustained in the second half.Iraola made sweeping changes for Liverpool’s Carabao Cup win over Chelsea in midweek, but Alisson Becker, Jeremy Jacquet, Milos Kerkez, Alexis Mac Allister, Florian Wirtz, Bradley Barcola and Alexander Isak are all expected to return to the starting lineup against Arsenal.Barcelona loanee Ronald Araujo, who played in central defence on Wednesday night, is set to resume his regular role at right-back in the absence of the injured Jeremie Frimpong and Conor Bradley.Double boost? Liverpool hope that Dominik Szoboszlai and Victor Munoz could return against ArsenalGettyThat change would see captain Virgil van Dijk, whose minutes were managed in midweek, resume his impressive partnership with Jacquet at the heart of Liverpool’s defence.Ryan Gravenberch played the full 90 minutes against Chelsea and should also get the nod to face Arsenal, partnering Mac Allister in midfield.Wirtz, meanwhile, emerged as an injury scare after suffering an ankle issue in the win over Brighton but recovered in time to feature against Chelsea and prove his fitness for the Arsenal game.The form of Barcola, Gakpo and Rio Ngumoha means that Munoz is unlikely to start even if passed fit, though the influential Szoboszlai is one of the first names on the teamsheet for Liverpool when available.Predicted Liverpool vs Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Araujo, Jacquet, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Barcola, Wirtz, Gakpo; IsakRead MoreInjured: Leoni, Ekitike, Bradley, FrimpongDoubts: Szoboszlai, MunozTime and date: 4.30pm GMT on Sunday November 1, 2026
