Arsenal
WWDLLL 📉
Since being beaten in their last game against Paris Saint-Germain in Champions League competition, Arsenal will be aiming to make amends here.
In that game, Arsenal had 54% possession and 19 shots at goal with 4 on target. The only player to score for Arsenal was Bukayo Saka (76'). Paris Saint-Germain had 11 shots at goal with 6 on target. Fabián Ruiz (27') and Achraf Hakimi (72') scored for Paris Saint-Germain.
Looking at their form, and Arsenal have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 7 goals overall. In defence, Arsenal have some weaknesses to address. Such a pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward here, though.
Looking at the pre-match facts, Arsenal:
- have not won against Liverpool in games played away from home for the previous 11 matches in the league. A very poor set of away results, indeed.
- are undefeated by Liverpool in games played away from home for the previous 2 league matches.
- are undefeated in their last 12 league matches away from home. Travelling very well.

Team News: Liverpool
Tyler Morton (Shoulder injury) and Joe Gomez (Hamstring injury) will be missing for Liverpool manager Arne Slot.
It seems likely that The Reds may well opt for a 4-2-3-1 system for this one, handing starts to Alisson, T. Alexander-Arnold, Jarell Quansah, Virgil Van Dijk, K. Tsimikas, Wataru Endo, Curtis Jones, Mohamed Salah, Harvey Elliott, Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota.
📰
Team News: Arsenal
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Kai Havertz (Hamstring injury), Jorginho (Chest injury), Gabriel Magalhães (Hamstring injury), Takehiro Tomiyasu (Knee surgery) and Gabriel Jesus (Cruciate ligament tear) can’t be considered.
There’s a good chance that The Gunners seem likely to utilise a 4-3-3 formation, choosing David Raya, Ben White, William Saliba, Jakub Kiwior, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Mikel Merino, Thomas Partey, Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli.
🧠
Prediction
Our assessment is that Arsenal would be disappointed if they were not to breach the defence of this Liverpool lineup, but that probably shouldn’t prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
Our tip is for a close game with a 2-1 win for Liverpool at the end of this one. Expecting it to be very competitive.
