Match Overview
Soon on the back of their EFL Cup game against West Ham United, Liverpool will play one of the biggest matches in the Premier League this season when they take on Arsenal at Anfield on Saturday. The visiting side, who hail from London, will want to take their fancied opponents down in this game, but it will not be easy by any means at all.
Key Highlights
Liverpool, who are known to start games on the front foot instead of inviting pressure from their opponents, will feel that they can get the better of Arsenal in this game owing to their fluid formation. Arsenal, however, have the ability to sit back and counter-attack when the opportunity presents itself. This will prove to be a fantastic game to watch.
Injury Report
Both these teams have a long list of injured players in their ranks. While Liverpool will have to make do without the likes of Thiago, Joel Matip and Diogo Jota, among others, for this game, for Arsenal, Thomas Partey, Mohamed Elneny and Jorginho are a few who will miss out.
Prediction
Both these teams, who are competing for the pole position of the league table at the time of writing, are separated by just a sole point. Arsenal will want to make sure that they maintain their lead at the top but Liverpool can upturn tables, especially when it comes to playing at home. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game.
