Premier League leaders Liverpool have a tough Carabao Cup fourth round tie on their hands ahead of the visit of North London giants Arsenal.

Liverpool would attempt to improve on their record from last season in cup competitions.

The Reds crashed out of the Carabao Cup at the third round stage last season following the 2-1 defeat to Chelsea at home.

Liverpool were able to navigate their way through the third round stage this season following the 2-0 win over MK Dons at home.

They face a fourth round meeting with an Arsenal side in little disarray due to the situation between club skipper Granit Xhaka and the fans.

Ahead of the Arsenal game, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is expected to rest some of his key players.

Some of the Liverpool youngsters like Rhian Brewster and Harvey Elliott are poised to feature against the Gunners.

Fringe players like Adam Lallana, Naby Keita, Joe Gomez and Divock Origi are expected to also feature in the Liverpool squad for the Arsenal game billed to take place at Anfield on Wednesday night.

Possible Liverpool XI vs Arsenal (4-3-3): Adrian; Joe Gomez, Ki-Jana Hoever, Dejan Lovren, James Milner; Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Adam Lallana; Harvey Elliott, Divock Origi and Rhian Brewster.
