Arsenal are likely to still be without Takehiro Tomiyasu for Wednesday’s Premier League visit of title-chasing Liverpool.

The Japan full-back has been struggling with a calf problem and is unlikely to be risked against the Reds.

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah is expected to be in the squad after a foot injury forced him off against Brighton on Saturday.

Centre-back Ibrahima Konate returns after missing the last two matches.

However, midfielder James Milner and left-back Kostas Tsimikas are likely to miss out with illness.

Arsenal provisional squad: Leno, Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, Chambers, Cedric, Gabriel, White, Holding, Tierney, Tavares, Lokonga, Partey, Xhaka, Elneny, Patino, Odegaard, Smith Rowe, Saka, Pepe, Martinelli, Lacazette, Nketiah.

Liverpool provisional squad: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Thiago, Henderson, Salah, Firmino, Diaz, Kelleher, Adrian, Gomez, Konate, Keita, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jones, Elliott, Jota, Mane, Minamino, Origi.
