How Arsenal Have Lined Up Recently

Away to Liverpool, Mikel Arteta lined his team up in his favoured 4-3-3 formation, with plenty of movement and rotation demanded by the Arsenal boss. David Raya continued in goal, Jurriën Timber and Riccardo Calafiori started in the full-back positions, and William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães started at centre back.

The trio of Martin Zubimendi, Declan Rice, and Mikel Merino started in midfield, offering plenty of work rate and creativity.

Out wide, it was Noni Madueke and Gabriel Martinelli, with Viktor Gyokeres starting in attack. Injuries to Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard left Arteta unable to select his strongest team before the international break. The potential return of Odegaard would be a huge boost for Arteta.

Arsenal Injuries and Absentees to Consider

Despite injury worries, it appears Arteta will receive three potential boosts, with Piero Hincapie, the deadline day signing from Bayer Leverkusen, available. The Ecuadorian defender was seen training alongside Ben White and Christian Norgaard, who also look set to return after injuries.

Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus will miss the visit of Nottingham Forest, while Saka and Saliba could miss the game.
