Liverpool v Arsenal: Women’s Super League – live

3 min: Endemann looks to send a cross towards the back post from the right but the ball runs behind.

2 min: Arsenal drive forward early and look to pile on the pressure. They move the ball around the edge of the Liverpool box before Baum makes a run to the byline, but the ball runs behind for a goal kick.

That period of silence was impeccably observed. Now, on to kick-off.

The teams are out and kick-off is just a few moments away. But first, everybody will observe a period of silence for Remembrance Sunday.

It will be interesting to see today if Alessia Russo starts as the lone striker, or in the No10 position.

Renée Slegers has been persevering with Russo in the 10 for much of the season so far. I do wonder if that could be a reason for Arsenal’s lack of goals. There is absolutely no doubt that the 27-year-old is at her best when she’s playing as a No9.

Manchester City returned to the top of the WSL table yesterday with a 5-0 win over West Ham, while Chelsea dropped points against Everton.

Liverpool starting line-up: Khiara Keating; Sam Kerr, Grace Fisk (C), Jenna Clark, Alejandra Bernabé; Fūka Nagano, Natalia Ramos, Kirsty Maclean; Vivien Endemann, Cornelia Kapocs, Beata Olsson.

Subs: Faye Kirby, Lucy Parry, Marie Höbinger, Sara Agrež, Alice Bergström, Mao Itamura, Mari Ward, Zara Shaw, Maizie Trueman.

Arsenal starting line-up: Misa Rodríguez, Emily Fox, Leah Williamson, Steph Catley, Taylor Hinds; Kim Little (C), Georgia Stanway, Lisa Baum; Olivia Smith, Caitlin Foord, Alessia Russo.

Subs: Daphne van Domselaar, Anneke Borbe, Lotte Wubben-Moy, Élisa De Almeida, Smilla Holmberg, Kyra Cooney-Cross, Géraldine Reuteler, Frida Maanum, Mia Dixon.

Hello and welcome to coverage of Liverpool v Arsenal in the Women’s Super League. Both teams are in desperate need of a win as they look to climb up the WSL table, with the Reds in 11th and the Gunners in eighth.

Liverpool come into this game having not managed a league win since September 27 – and last weekend’s heavy 4-1 loss to West Ham will be on their minds.

Meanwhile, following a poor start to the season, the Gunners enjoyed two successive wins against Tottenham and Benfica but saw their form drop once more in a 1-1 draw against Aston Villa. Renée Slegers now finds herself under increasing pressure, meaning a win today is vital.
