Football Prediction 

It’s a top-of-the-table clash with Arsenal traveling to Anfield to take one of the most in-form teams in Liverpool.

The campaigns Liverpool and Arsenal are having are eerily similar. One is on 39 points (Arsenal), the other is on 38. They both have conceded exactly 15 goals. Liverpool are coming off a drab 0-0 draw against Manchester United where they were expected to win comfortably. Arsenal are coming off a comprehensive 2-0 win against Brighton that sent another reminder and this is a tie that both would want to win considering Manchester City is yet to hit the higher gear.

H2H / Stats 

The Gunners travel to Anfield looking to win there for the first time since 2012, when Arteta was still playing.

Liverpool vs Arsenal’s head-to-head record shows that of the 39 meetings they’ve had, Liverpool has won 12 times and Arsenal has won 10 times. 17 fixtures between Liverpool and Arsenal have ended in a draw.

Team News 

Liverpool have multiple injury issues going into this game. Jota, Thiago, Gravenberch, Robertson, Matip, and Mac Allister are all out due to injuries. Thus, Jurgen Klopp will have a headache going into this crucial game about the midfield of the Reds after the hamstring injury that Gravenberch suffered against Manchester United.

Arsenal have a handful of fitness concerns, but not with the 11 players who started their previous two League games. Jurrien Timber (knee), Fabio Vieira (groin), Mohamed Elneny (hamstring) and Takehiro Tomiyasu (calf) are all expected to miss out.

Probable Line-Up

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Konate, Tsimikas, Endo, Szoboszlai, Jones, Salah, Gakpo, Nunez

Arsenal XI: Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko, Rice, Havertz, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Jesus

Verdict 

Liverpool’s flying home form was brought to a screeching halt by United with a disciplined defensive performance. While that might provide a template for other teams to follow but Arteta is a manager who would want to go all out so we expect goals.
