Liverpool v Arsenal
Premier League
Anfield, Liverpool
09th April, 09.00 pm
Preview:
It’s the faceoff of the top four catchup Liverpool and the title contenders Arsenal in what seems to be a mouth watering clash between the Premier League giants.
Winless in their last four games in all competitions, Jurgen Klopp’s men will be looking to get their form back on track in their pursuit for a top four finish. Although they have scored just once across these matches which were away from home, the Reds are a different beast at home. Only Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City have had a better record at home this season as the club from Merseyside have taken 16 points from their last 18, including the 7-0 thrashing of the Red Devils at Anfield.
Favorites to win the title this season, the Gunners will be looking to carry on their winning form as the blue side of Manchester breathe down their neck. Having won the reverse fixture at Anfield, Arteta’s men will be confident of replicating the result with the fit again Jesus back in Arsenal’s ‘arsenal’. Although Liverpool are unbeaten in their last nine home games against the Gunners, Arteta’s men have scored atleast three goals in each of their last five Premier League games – which could hand us a Sunday night feast of goals gallore.
