England Premier League
Saturday 3rd November 2018
Kick off at 5:30pm GMT
Venue: Emirates Stadium

Match Preview:

The early evening game will be worth watching as Arsenal take on Liverpool in the Premier League.

Arsenal’s fantastic run of 11 games unbeaten came to an end last week when they drew 2-2 away against Crystal Palace, which leaves the club 4 points behind Liverpool.

The Gunners have looked like a different team under manager Unai Emery and whilst the club have been in brilliant form, cynics have pointed out that none of their recent wins have come against top four clubs. Now they have the chance to prove doubters wrong as they take on a genuine title challenging team.

Arsenal have lost just 1 game at home which was against Manchester City in their opening day fixture and have won 12 points from 15 on offer.

Liverpool come to the Emirates unbeaten this season. They are 2^nd only to Manchester City on goal difference. Form would put them in 4^th place but they have still won 11 points from their last 15. Away from home they have won 4 games and drawn 1, and they have beaten Tottenham on the road and drawn against Chelsea.

Liverpool will have to face Red Star Belgrade away on Tuesday night and that game might be playing on their mind, a win could have them with one foot in the next stage of the Champions League. But the Premier League is in reality the clubs priority this season.

Team News:

Arsenal: Hector Bellerin sustained a muscle injury in the draw to Palace and will be assessed ahead of this game. Sead Kolasinac and Nacho Monreal could return to the squad after minor injuries.

Liverpool: Jordan Henderson is fighting hard to make the squad after a hamstring injury but it is unknown if he will be rested until after the international break.

Arsenal vs Liverpool Head to Head:

Last season this game finished a thriller, 3-3.

Arsenal have not beaten Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium since 2015.

Since 2011 Liverpool have just 1 win over Arsenal away from home.

Arsenal vs Liverpool Prediction:

What a fantastic game we have on our hands, and it might just be a match that plays into Liverpool’s. The beauty of watching Arsenal perform again is back, but it comes with the team playing a high line. Keep that formation and Liverpool have the quality even away from home to expose this. The Reds remain a cut above Arsenal at this time, and we will back them to win this game. Having said that, this is Arsenal’s match to show the rest of the league what they can do and answer one major question, have they moved on from Arsene Wenger?
