Arsenal handed Bukayo Saka and Jurrien Timber boost

It might be a bit early to know for sure if they’re fit enough to start, but it looks like we can safely say we’re going to see some involvement for Bukayo Saka and Jurrien Timber for Arsenal’s game against Liverpool today.

The Gunners have had a bit of a nightmare start to the season with injuries, losing club captain Martin Odegaard for a lengthy period, while Saka and Timber both looked doubtful for this match after missing the recent games against Bournemouth and Shakhtar Donetsk.

Arsenal are also set to be without William Saliba today as he’s suspended following his red card against Bournemouth, but it looks like the good news for Mikel Arteta is that Saka and Timber are available, even if it might still only end up being from the bench.
