The teams are in and Arsenal are unchanged from the side that beat Leicester 2-0 at the weekend. Captain Alexandre Lacazette will once again lead the line up front, with a youthful supporting cast of Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Martinelli playing just behind the Frenchman. Ben White and Aaron Ramsdale are two England hopefuls wanting to impress with an international break coming next week. Emile Smith Rowe starts on the bench.

For Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp makes two changes from their weekend defeat of Brighton, with Thiago replacing Naby Keita in midfield and Diogo Jota coming in for Mo Salah in the front three. The Reds' Egyptian King had been carrying a knock and will have to make do with a place on the bench, alongside Roberto Firmino. Sadio Mane, Luis Diaz and Virgil van Dijk all start.

Arsenal are flying in 2022. The Gunners have won five in a row in the league to put them in the box seat to qualify for next season's Champions League. So good is the form of attacking midfield trio Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Martinelli, that top scorer Emile Smith Rowe is having to make do with a place on the bench. Ben White is probably England's most in-form centre-back at the minute.

Liverpool are on their own eight-game Premier League winning streak. The Reds having conceded twice in that period, while winter recruit Luis Diaz has slotted seamlessly into a forward line that already contained Mo Salah, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino. However, their Champions League second leg defeat to Inter Milan proved there are cracks to be exploited, even if Klopp's side still made it into the last eight of that competition.

The match kicks off at 8:15pm GMT tonight, Wednesday, 16th March, at the Emirates in London. Follow our guide on how to watch an Arsenal vs Liverpool live stream online, on TV and on your smartphone, from wherever you are in the world.
