Madueke's availability is particularly significant considering that Max Dowman is suspended after his late red card against Fleetwood.

The Gunners are set to be bolstered by the return of Christos Tzolis, who is in contention to make the squad for the first time since before the last international break.

He has recovered from a hamstring injury and took full part in first-team training on Friday, as did Declan Rice and Riccardo Calafiori after their recent minor issues.

Havertz in particular had an awful night in the cup upset, but Arteta often turns to the German in the biggest matches.

Predicted Arsenal XI vs Liverpool (4-2-3-1): Raya; Timber, Konsa, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Guimaraes; Madueke, Odegaard, Eze; Havertz
