Arne Slot takes his beleaguered Liverpool side to the capital on Sunday fighting to save his job.
The reigning champions are currently enduring a nightmare run. They have lost their last three games heavily. Critically, they have conceded three or more goals in three consecutive matches. This is a defensive collapse not seen at the club in over 70 years.
Consequently, the Reds sit 12th in the table. They are now closer to the relegation zone than the league leaders. Moreover, their record in London is abysmal. They have lost their last five away league games in the capital. Therefore, Slot must find a way to plug a leaky defence. His side has conceded 20 goals in 12 games, which is their worst defensive start to a Premier League season since 1992.
Liverpool team news
Arne Slot has received a massive boost ahead of this match. Specifically, goalkeeper Alisson Becker has been declared fit to return. However, the defence remains makeshift due to injuries. Both Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong are unavailable. Consequently, Joe Gomez is expected to start at right-back after being on the bench midweek.
In midfield, there is hope that Florian Wirtz can make the squad, though he may not start. Up front, Alexander Isak will likely lead the line. He aims to score his first Premier League goal for the club. He will be supported by Mohamed Salah and Dominik Szoboszlai. Meanwhile, Hugo Ekitike is a doubt due to a back issue.
