Robin van Persie again looks to be a major doubt for Arsenal ahead of tomorrow's Champions League quarter-final second leg at Anfield.
The Holland striker has been struggling with a thigh muscle problem and missed the 1-1 Barclays Premier League draw at Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
Manager Arsene Wenger rested several key men, and is likely to recall leading scorer Emmanuel Adebayor, Alexander Hleb, Gael Clichy and Philippe Senderos to the starting line-up tomorrow.
Midfielder Abou Diaby is available as his suspension is only domestic, but full-back Bacary Sagna (ankle) and Tomas Rosicky (hamstring) remain sidelined. Eduardo is out for the season with a broken leg.
Provisional squad: Almunia, Toure, Gallas, Senderos, Clichy, Eboue, Flamini, Fabregas, Hleb, Diaby, Walcott, Adebayor, Lehmann, Song, Gilberto, J Hoyte, Bendtner, Denilson, Traore, van Persie.
