Arsenal vs Liverpool

Emirates Stadium sets the stage for a high-stakes Premier League top-four six-pointer between last season’s runners-up Arsenal and table-topping Liverpool.

With just five points separating the sides ahead of the kick-off, avenging a dismal 2-0 defeat in the FA Cup third round in January would significantly strengthen Arsenal’s pursuit of their first Premier League title in two decades. The Gunners pulled off an enthralling 3-2 victory in this corresponding fixture last season and will be confident of posting another win. Not only have Mikel Arteta’s men won back-to-back games against Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace, but they’ve won eight of their last ten competitive matches on home turf (L2). Delivering action from the get-go, the London heavyweights have opened the scoring inside the first ten minutes in their last three top-flight meetings with Liverpool, highlighting the potential for a high-scoring contest.

Meanwhile, Jurgen Klopp’s announcement of the summer departure has not deterred Liverpool from emulating Manchester City’s all-conquering 2022/23 campaign, with the Reds hammering Norwich City 5-2 in their first game after the German’s confession before putting Chelsea to the sword in an overwhelming 4-1 victory in midweek. Capable of packing a punch without Mohamed Salah, Klopp’s charges have hit a four-goal landmark in both Premier League outings during their talisman’s absence, including a 4-0 humbling of Bournemouth on their last travel. Liverpool’s free-scoring form increases the likelihood of finding the net in a 17th consecutive league encounter against Arsenal. With no side netting more goals against the Gunners in the Premier League than Liverpool (108) and the Merseysiders winning three of their last four competitive away games by 2+ goals ‘to nil,’ it’s hard to put it past them to upset the Emirates.
