Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has reinstated captain Jordan Henderson to the starting lineup for their top-of-the-table encounter against Arsenal at Anfield.

In a bid to extend their 100% percent record in the 2019-2o Premier League campaign when they face Arsenal, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has made a couple of changes to the starting lineup that started last time against Southampton.

Both the alterations come in the middle of the park with club captain Jordan Henderson back in the starting lineup after being benched for the last game. Brazilian international Fabinho also returns to the side in the holding midfield role for Liverpool against the Gunners, with James Milner and former Arsenal man Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain dropping out.

Georginio Wijnaldum occupies the third midfield slot for the home team against Unai Emery’s side. Adrian continues to deputize for the injured Alisson between the sticks and will once again be shielded by the back four of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joel Matip, Virgil van Dijk and Andrew Robertson.

The three-pronged attack of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane, who thrashed Arsenal on their previous visit to Anfield, start on Saturday, with Divock Origi and Xherdan Shaqiri providing options from the bench.
