Liverpool vs Arsenal: Match preview
Liverpool drew three times in their opening four Premier League matches. However, the team began to produce better results after that. The Merseysiders have lost only to Manchester City, going down 3-0, while winning all their other matches. The team currently have 15 points after eight rounds and sit fourth in the table. They are six points behind the leaders and two points ahead of fifth place. In midweek, Liverpool knocked Chelsea out of the English League Cup.
Arsenal made headlines for all the wrong reasons in midweek. The team faced a side from the bottom tier of English football and suffered a shock defeat. They lost 5-3 to Fleetwood on penalties and were eliminated from the competition. Overall, however, the reigning English champions have been performing well in the league. They currently have 21 points after eight rounds and sit second, behind Manchester City only on the relevant tiebreakers. They hold a five-point lead over third place, which is a fairly comfortable advantage.
Probable lineups
- Liverpool: Alisson; Araujo, Jacquet, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Barcola, Wirtz, Gakpo; Isak

Prediction
Liverpool and Arsenal are both in very good form, so we can expect a tense and intriguing match. I suggest betting on both teams to score. The odds for this outcome are 1.67.
