Salah, Mane, Firmino

Liverpool’s attacking trio will be eager to find the net on Monday. All three have scored against Arsenal in the past two seasons and will be expected to do the same at Anfield.

Sadio Mane had a fine match against Chelsea, scoring both goals and will be looking to add to his tally on Monday. Liverpool’s hat-trick hero against Leeds found the net twice at Anfield last season and us fans would no doubt love it if he nets a goal or two.

Roberto Firmino scored his only Premier League hat-trick against the Gunners and will be looking to open his goal tally on Monday.

Liverpool’s famed front three will certainly make life difficult for the Arsenal defenders and we could see a fine performance from them.

Diogo Jota made his debut against Lincoln in the Carabao Cup but probably won’t start this one yet, while Xherdan Shaqiri may have to be content with another outing on the bench.

The player that’ll run Firmino the closest is Takumi Minamino, who played well against Lincoln and scored twice. It’s becoming increasingly obvious that his future lies through the middle and he’ll get his chance there at some point.

Next. Mohamed Salah will ruin David Luiz and Arsenal. dark

But just three games into the season, it’s unlikely to be at the expensive of Bobby and Klopp won’t want to disrupt his forward line when everyone is fit.
