Three Arsenal players are poised to be absent from the upcoming FA Cup clash against Liverpool, scheduled for Sunday, January 7, 2024.
This marks the second encounter between the two teams within a month, with the previous match ending in a 1-1 draw at Anfield just before Christmas.
Mikel Arteta's squad are set to face the challenge without the services of Mohamed Elneny and Takehiro Tomiyasu. Elneny has already joined the Egypt squad for the AFCON, while Tomiyasu is expected to depart for the Asian Cup on Friday.
Furthermore, the availability of Oleksandr Zinchenko remains uncertain as Arsenal await updates on his calf injury. The Ukrainian international has undergone a scan to assess the severity of the injury, adding an element of suspense to Arsenal's preparations for the FA Cup clash against Liverpool.
If Zinchenko is unavailable, there's a high probability that Jacub Kiwior will once again take up a starting role in the defense.
