Doubt Oxlade has it in him to play the 90 at the moment. I suppose Keita and Shaqiri would play but for injuries.
Chirivella is the only slightly meh inclusion. Surprised Hoever hasn't got a game, even if out of positon at leftback.
Don't think the result is necessarily a forgone conclusion at all.

I think it'll be more than a little embarrassing for Everton if they can't at least squeak a draw, having gone full strength.
Take the fact that it's Everton out of the thinking and everyone would agree. He played a very similar team at home to Arsenal.
There's a great chance of winning the league and the champions league should be played for too.
The league is in the bag, he should be trying to win this as well. Sacking off the cups is small time.
Agree with Jim. Everton have to win this now, not doing so would be a major knock on Ancelotti and the players.
There are actually a few clubs who, if anything, need to start sacking off the league. Liverpool are probably about 3 wins from being able to do so, while Arsenal should be prioritising the cups straight away.
Everton will walk this.
That Liverpool rookie left back has got some proper muscles on him.
And immediately you see why he rotated. There's going to be a fair few kids on the bench for Spurs away at this rate.
I think winning the cup would be better for Arsenal and Man United than getting into the Europa, but the moneymen would presumably disagree.
Chirivella is a proper tidy footballer.
They both need to win the Europa, which should be by far and away the priority over the league. Then (certainly in Arsenal's case) they need to get back into the Europa to have a go at winning it next year so the FA Cup would be the best route.
Arsenal v Leeds tomorrow I am very much looking forward to, although this has been a very watchable game so far too.
The under 11's would beat Spurs at the moment.
Williams has impressed. Nice to see a Liverpool right back in position.
Yeah some good displays from the youngsters so far.
Jones seems to hold the ball a little too long, but he'll learn. Williams looks good. We do seem to go to pieces on the break though, so I expect Everton will stick one away eventually.
Shame he'll have to leave if he wants this not to be his final ever professional appearance.
Is Brewster just a waste of time? It looks like he'll be having a career similar to Nathan Eccleston at this point.
What a hit.
He's set for a loan out to probably Swansea. Big hopes but yet to see anything.
Must be fucking horrific being an Everton fan.
If Everton had been relegated during those pre-Moyes seasons where they always just survived they would have never come back up. What an absolutely shit club.
Boss that.
“I always said we had the best two teams on Merseyside… Liverpool and Liverpool Reserves.”
Gomez and Lallana were superb. Williams, Jones and Chirivella all very good.
The good news is we can't now go out to the game raising twats 1-0 away in the fifth round to some £9 million Peruvian fart scoring his only goal for the club at a full throttle screaming Goodison.
Even better news is that with world 3 in motion, it should cancel football and stop Liverpool from winning the league.
Nah, the Third World War (tm) only affects third world countries.
Post Brexit Britain vs Somalia.
Why is the kickoff tonight down as 4 minutes to 8.
It's 7.55 plus one minute for mental health.
Early days in this one but Leeds look the far more accomplished side. Just not sure their centre forward is good enough so the gooners may nick it 1-0.
This is a skullfucking. Leeds would be top half in the Premier League easily.
The one player who hasn't looked any good under Arteta has been Guendouzi. Absolutely all over the place.
Players really need to stop kicking the ball out for what invariably turns out to be some tart pretending he's hurt.
Man, that cup draw is kind to us.
Not without a competent goal scorer.
All that fucking about over that free kick to end up as an overhit backpass.
Incredible. Half the team should get booked for time-wasting.
Arsenal are horrific.
Booing your team off at 0-0 in the 3rd round of the FA Cup. Fuck me. Delete this club.
I'm trying to pinpoint the exact moment Arsenal turned from a proper club into the current laughing stock. I'm not sure but I think it may well have been Mantralux's 'Realistic Arsenal Database'.
It was the 2011 League Cup final.
Eduardos leg.
And it was this rather than the actual game.
The Ashley Cole / Gallas swap deal. After getting to a Champions League final with a defense that consisted of Eboue, Senderos, Toure, Flaimini and then in the summer, lost the best left back of a generation over five grand a week and his replacement took Dennis Bergkamps number.
Reiss Nelson is constantly slipping over. He needs longer studs or something, I thought it was the pitches he'd played on but this is 3 games at home in a row now.
Back in your box Leeds.
If this aversion to having a good striker in his squad has been typical of his career, I can kind of see why Bielsa has never won anything despite the amazing football produced.
