Jesus And Ramsdale Play From The Start | 4-3-3 Arsenal Predicted XI Vs Liverpool

Amidst a break in the Premier League title race, Arsenal and Liverpool clash in an FA Cup battle at the Emirates Stadium.

As the Premier League title chase takes a brief pause, Arsenal and Liverpool will vie for a spot in the FA Cup’s fourth round at the Emirates Stadium this Sunday. The Gunners ended 2023 with a 2-1 loss against Fulham, while the dominant Reds widened their lead atop the table with a 4-2 victory against Newcastle United.

Mikel Arteta will opt for a 4-3-3 formation once again and will look to make a few changes as Eddie Nketiah could drop to the bench making way for Gabriel Jesus to lead the attack while Aaron Ramsdale gets a chance to impress in goal.

4-3-3 Arsenal Predicted XI Vs Liverpool

Defence

Aaron Ramsdale will function in between the sticks for the Gunners hoping to earn a clean sheet. William Saliba will play alongside Gabriel at the heart of Arsenal’s defence as they try to restrict the Liverpool attackers from scoring this weekend.

Ben White will fill in as a right-back while Jakub Kiwior looks to catch the eye as the left-back. Both of them would be eager to put in a positive showing versus the Reds in this home encounter.

Midfield

Kai Havertz will operate alongside Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard in the midfield. All three of them will look to dictate the tempo of the game and engineer some promising opportunities in the final third to win this contest.

Jorginho will have to settle for a place on the bench as he waits for a chance to make an impact in the second half if required.

Attack

Gabriel Martinelli will be given a chance to operate as the left-winger while Bukayo Saka remains a guaranteed starter on the right flank.

Gabriel Jesus will lead the charge for the Gunners in the final third. He would be eager to impress by producing an influential display this weekend.

Leandro Trossard and Eddie Nketiah will take a spot on the bench and could come on in the second half of the match if the North London club are need in of a goal.
