The Gameweek rolls on with a showpiece fixture at the Emirates.

Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal host Liverpool in the tea-time encounter with a host of Fantasy talent on show.

On paper, this could be a tight and cagey affair but Arsenal’s injuries at the back may just prompt both sides to go on the offensive.

Certainly Jurgen Klopp has named an attacking line-up, spearheaded by Roberto Firmino and supported by new signing Sadio Mane and the guile of Philippe Coutinho and Adam Lallana.

That quartet with surely stretch the Gunners backline with Wenger forced to start with a pairing of Calum Chambers and new signing Rob Holding.

Wenger will look to Alexis Sanchez and Theo Walcott to provide a response at the other end, with Aaron Ramsey set to start in the number ten role in the absence of Mesut Ozil.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Firmino owners, group hug!

    It was the right decision to get a Liverpool mid against this shocking defence, but just bad luck

        Firmino captain Sanchez owner, 30 pounds spread over on : firmino first scorer, mane first scorer, 2-2, 1-2, 0-3, 1-3. I cant log into skybet so switched to betfair that didn't allow specific scores of more than 3, just 'other score'. Would have covered every possibility of a high score for a few pounds ! Plus I don't even think I put on for a Liverpool win.

        Sadface.
