Liverpool host Arsenal at Anfield for the second time in the space of four days on Thursday night when the two clubs renew hostilities in the EFL Cup fourth round.

The victory extended Liverpool's 100% start to the campaign, including a 7-2 thrashing of League One side Lincoln City in the previous round of this competition.
