The leader in the Premier League table, Arsenal, who is led by Mikel Arteta, will try to continue the great games in the current season, Jurgen Klopp’s company, Liverpool, is coming to the Emirates.
Arsenal started the new season brilliantly, they have 21 out of 24 possible points. Also, their self-confidence is at a high level after a 3:1 win in the North London derby over Tottenham, and they also recorded a 3:0 win in the Europa League over Norway’s Bodo.
This will be their third game at the Emirates in the last 8 days. It is interesting that Arsenal does not have a single ‘clean sheet’, that is, it has not managed to keep a clean sheet even once in the current season, despite the fact that they are the leaders in the table.
Liverpool, a team that really likes to play against Arsenal, is coming to the Emirates. In the last 13 matches, the Arsenal team failed to keep a clean sheet against today’s opponent and even recorded a victory in the 9th match. If they continue at the same pace today, they will even record their 5th consecutive victory against the Gunners. Since arriving on the island, manager Jurgen Klopp has scored the most points against Arsenal.
Despite the victory over Rangers in the Champions League, Liverpool’s confidence is not at a high level. They are already 11 points behind Arsenal, who are at the top of the table. Their defense, which managed to keep a clean sheet only twice in the last eleven matches in the Premier League, is proof that the team from Anfield is struggling. Also, in as many as 9 matches, Liverpool was the first to concede a goal and had to chase the deficit.
In the last 20 matches between today’s opponents, Liverpool has won 10 times. Arsenal failed to find the back of Alison’s net in the last 3 matches at the Emirates.
The biggest threat to the goal of Jurgen Klopp’s team will be Gabriel Jesus, who since moving from City has recorded great games, and has the effect of 5 goals and 3 assists. On the other hand, Roberto Firmino, who is always in a good mood against Arsenal, has identical statistics, having scored a total of 7 goals against the Gunners since arriving in Liverpool.
The match at the Emirates between the two giants of island football starts at 17:30 h, and the referee will be Michael Oliver.
