Liverpool vs Arsenal

Premier League champions Liverpool welcome early leaders Arsenal to Anfield in what already feels like a potential title-shaping clash.

Both sides have made perfect starts to the season, winning their first two games and laying down early markers in the hunt for glory.

Liverpool News

Liverpool edged Newcastle 3-2 on Monday night in what many have called the game of the season so far. Sixteen-year-old Rio Ngumoha stole the headlines with a late winner, capping off another thrilling performance at St James’ Park.

Arne Slot’s side haven’t looked fully settled yet, but still boast two wins from two, scoring seven and conceding four. Jeremie Frimpong remains sidelined with a muscle injury, while their patchy run from the back end of last season lingers, with just two wins in their last six league outings.

That said, Anfield has been a fortress. The Reds are unbeaten in 10 home league games, scoring at least twice in eight of them. Goals flow both ways too, and nine of their last 10 competitive matches have seen them concede, with over 2.5 goals in eight of those.

Arsenal News

Arsenal have come flying out of the blocks, grinding out a 1-0 win over Manchester United before thumping Leeds 5-0 last weekend. Summer signing Viktor Gyokeres bagged a brace in that game and looks like an early-season coup.

Mikel Arteta has some injury concerns, with Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard both doubts after hobbling off last time out, while Kai Havertz is definitely missing through a knee issue. Even so, the Gunners look sharp at the back - they had the best defence in the league last season and have started with two clean sheets.

Arsenal are unbeaten in their last five Premier League games, with three of those fixtures ending in over 2.5 goals. They have managed to avoid defeat in their last 10 away games, failing to find the net just once, an encouraging sign for goals at Anfield.

Head to Head

Liverpool hold a slight advantage over Arsenal in this fixture, winning four of the last 10 meetings in all competitions. However, they have failed to beat the Gunners in their last five meetings, with four ending draws, including a 2-2 stalemate the last time they met.

Verdict

Liverpool v Arsenal

Little separates these two teams in this fixture, with four of their last five clashes ending in draws. Their last two fixtures have ended in 2-2 draws, a result that could also play out in this game.

Both Liverpool and Arsenal have found the net in their last six meetings in the Premier League and have landed over 2.5 goals in five of those, making the same outcome a possibility in Sunday’s tie at Anfield.
