Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Arsenal

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

Liverpool will endeavour to keep the pressure on Premier League leaders Manchester City when they take on Arsenal at the Emirates in Wednesday's battle.

Jurgen Klopp's side recorded a 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion in Saturday's early kickoff, as Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah found the target on the South coast.

Liverpool - who have now amassed 2,000 goals in the Premier League - have closed the gap on Man City at the top to three points, although the champions could extend that to six with victory over Crystal Palace on Monday night.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Gunners.
