Liverpool fans believe that Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard will both start this Sunday (27 October) when they face Arsenal at Emirates Stadium.

Saka has been unavailable since England’s defeat against Greece in the Nations League due to a hamstring issue, while Odegaard has been out of action since the previous international break.

The club captain suffered an ankle ligament issue while representing Norway, leading to him missing nine games across all competitions.

During the pre-match press conference, Mikel Arteta confirmed that Saka has done some team training and he refused to rule out either player for the Liverpool game.

The Arsenal boss said, “We’re going to do our very best to somehow have them available, but it’s very uncertain.

Liverpool fans are expecting to see Arsenal have both their star players fit

The fixture will be important in the race for the Premier League title, with Liverpool being the current league leaders.

The Reds sit four points above the Gunners heading into this weekend, but supporters expect to see many of Arsenal’s injured stars feature against them in some capacity.
