Arsenal vs Liverpool Confirmed Lineups for January 8

These are the confirmed lineups for Arsenal vs Liverpool at the Emirates. The Gunners ended 2025 on a positive note and began 2026 with a battling 3-2 win away at Bournemouth. Mikel Arteta’s team fell behind due to a rare defensive lapse. However, they showed their toughness and collected a massive three points. Liverpool won the first fixture between these two earlier in the season. 

Liverpool’s form has improved, but an injury to Alexander Isak and their form still not matching last season has left Liverpool fans frustrated. Can Arne Slot’s men get a huge three points, or will Arteta’s team continue their march towards the Premier League title?
