Mamadou Sakho is set to make his first Premier League start for more than three months against Arsenal tomorrow.

The French centre-back is likely to replace Dejan Lovren, who suffered a groin injury against Bournemouth in midweek.

Sakho has missed most of the season with a thigh injury but is now fully fit.

The £18million defender hasn’t started in the Premier League since prior to September’s Merseyside derby, when he stormed off after discovering he hadn’t even made the bench. He subsequently apologised for walking out.

Brendan Rodgers is expected to retain the 3-4-2-1 formation he played against Manchester United and Bournemouth.

Joe Allen (knee) is likely to miss out, while Daniel Sturridge and Glen Johnson remain sidelined. Long-term absentees Suso and Jon Flanagan have returned to light training.
