Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Arsenal vs. Liverpool at English Premier League
The fact that both teams had exhausting UCL challenges and that they battle for the Premiership title suggests that we are about to see one ruthless and fierce battle in London. Apart from a great rivalry, the current circumstances are increasing the tension ahead of this clash, which will only make it more attractive for us fans.
Arsenal
After losing to Bournemouth 2-0, another failure would be a massive blow to the Gunners’ championship ambitions. Arteta not only has to think about that but who is going to replace the suspended Saliba. One of the most powerful attacks is coming to the Emirates, and he needs to come up with something to slow it down.
Arsenal is very good at home this year, having five wins and a tie in six matches played across all competitions. In just one of them (a 1-1 tie against Brighton), the team failed to net at least twice.
However, the defense isn’t that impressive, recording two clean sheets against the shorthanded PSG and sorry Wolves. It’s obvious that compared to the previous season, Arsenal struggles to perform well in that area.
Liverpool
The Reds are flying high now, particularly following a 2-1 win over Chelsea last Sunday. We can’t say that they dominated against the Blues, but overall, Slot’s crew deserved to win when looking at the development on the field.
After losing to Nottingham at home, Liverpool posted four straight EPL victories, with a combined goal difference of eight scored and three conceded goals. The rise in form ever since was noticeable, and Slot’s crew really looks strong right now.
They’ve been more than confident in the Premiership when playing away from Anfield, winning in all four outings. Their goal difference throughout this stretch is 8-1. Let us remind you that they defeated Ipswich, Man United, Wolves, and Palace.
Arsenal: Raya; White, Calafiori, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Havertz, Rice, Partey; Sterling, Saka, Trossard
Liverpool: Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Jones, Diaz; Nunez
Last year, these two teams met three times. Liverpool was better in the FA Cup, 0-2 at Emirates, while the first EPL game at Anfield ended without winners, 1-1. The second at the Emirates ended with the hosts beating the Reds 3-1.
Arsenal feels the pressure here, unlike Liverpool, who is in a better position and can afford to wait and lay back. With all the problems in the back, the Gunners can’t afford to be too aggressive because that might backfire, knowing Liverpool’s offensive abilities. All in all, we would pick a moderate efficiency here, which would be 2 or 3 goals. That is, in our opinion, the best pick for Sunday’s spectacle.
Our verdict: 2 or 3 goals
