Steven Caulker, Liverpool's loan signing that joined the club yesterday is only on the bench for the Premier League game against league leaders Arsenal tonight.
The defender Caulker joined on a six-month loan from Queens Park Rangers.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said before kick-off: "Every time we go to Anfield, we face a team who is up for it. It's always a ferocious battle, no matter who the manager is.
"They had a very strong manager before [Brendan Rodgers], they have a very strong one now and Klopp has the personality to do well there."
Klopp said before the game: "Arsenal and Arsene have their own style; it's possession football, so it's clear that if we want to play the same way we will be without a chance because they've been doing it for longer.
"Arsenal are not only a good possession team, that's the problem, they have good counter-attacks too and that's what you have to be aware of.
"It's a job - but it's a really nice job - to think about solutions and how to stop them coming through with their plan. I like things like this."
