68% possession for Liverpool so far. They look to build on that with Henderson on the right of the box, but Gabriel slides in expertly.

Alisson comes a long way to meet Saka who chases a loose ball after a foul from the youngster on Matip, who is furious at the refusal of the referee to give a free kick. In other news, Curtis Jones is on for Liverpool.

A Liverpool break ensues with Alexander-Arnold at the heart of it, and he feeds Firmino to slide in Minamino, but White recovers well for Arsenal.

Alisson deals well with the whipped Saka delivery.

Curtis Jones is stripping down preparing to come on for Liverpool, as Saka wins a free kick in the mean time, earning Andy Robertson a yellow for the pull.

Liverpool are keeping possession well, as they should against ten men, but there's no real cutting edge there yet. Arsenal defending resolutely in their block.

LACKLUSTRE LIVERPOOL?

The hosts are just missing that spark in the final third at the moment. Obviously Mo Salah and Mane aren't there, but Minamino and Firmino must do better in these coming minutes.

SAKA SHOT

Matip's drive from range is way over after the initial Henderson cross is cleared.

Minamino drives down the left with great pace and his overhit cross flies over the goalkeeper with Ramsdale scrambling! Goal kick.

The second half is underway.

There's half time. Arsenal have been resolute, Liverpool haven't quite shown their teeth in attack yet, and we'll be back in 15.

Lacazette earns a free kick after being pulled back by Fabinho.

They've nearly held on for the first 45. Two minutes added to contend with.

Conceded by Matip with a wayward clearance. Alisson paws it away and Saka does well to beat Jota in the countering 50/50,

Liverpool again come close as Alexander-Arnold's teasing cross falls to Robertson at the far, and the left-back neglects the shooting chance, instead crossing and winning the throw on the far side, off the head of Gabriel.

... from Trent. Back with Fabinho.

A burst from Robertson and then Minamino down the right wins a corner for Liverpool as they keep knocking on the door.

Minamino is fouled by Saka in the left channel.

It's most definitely a back three now for Arsenal. Chambers stays at right-back, but White is shifted wide right so Holding fills in in the middle.

Well cleared and Liverpool reset and rebuild.
