Arsenal will kick start their Premier League campaign against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side. Who will come out on top?
As far as Arsenal’s team news is concerned, the Gunners are facing a huge dilemma at the back with Per Mertesacker and Gabriel Paulista out injured. In such a scenario, new signing Rob Holding will probably start.
Star defender Laurent Koscielny has recently returned to training but with key playrs out injuted, he may have to start and partner Holding in the central defense in the starting XI.
Spanish international Santi Cazorla may start with new summer signing Granit Xhaka in the center of the park.
Record signing Mesut Ozil only returned from his post-Euro 2016 break a few days back and he might not get the nod to start against Liverpool. The same can be said for French striker Olivier Giroud as well.
Therefore, expect the likes of Iwobi, Ramsey and Chamberlain to start in the attack behind Alexis Sanchez. Here is Arsenal’s potential 4-2-3-1 XI vs Liverpool.

holding showed too many mental mistakes to play in this game. Chambers will get the nod over holding if it comes to that, but Debuchy seems more likely. The most talented starting back four would be Gibbs, monreal. Koscielny, and Bellerin. And if the back 4 is makeshift, Wenger might opt for Elneny with Xhaka.
