Liverpool News and Form – Will Liverpool beat Arsenal?

Liverpool had to recover from losing an early goal at home against the Spurs on the weekend. They ended up collecting the three points from the fixture to maintain their perfect form at Anfield this season. The Reds have won all six of their fixtures at Anfield in all competitions but they haven’t taken a clean sheet in any, however. The Reds have shipped exactly one goal in five of their six games at Anfield this season

All fixtures at Anfield in all competitions have made it over 2.5 goals this season, helped along of course by Liverpool’s lack of clean sheets. Liverpool have won their last three by a one-goal margin, and their last two at Anfield they have won by a 2-1 scoreline. So that may be a nice little trend. The Reds have suffered a loss in four of their last five Carabao Cup games. This season they opened up with a 2-0 away win at the MK Dons, snapping a four-match losing streak in the competition.

Arsenal News and Form – Can the Gunners keep it tight at Anfield?

It hasn’t been the greatest of weeks for Arsenal. Not defensively anyway. A 1-0 league defeat at Sheffield United was followed by fighting back from a 2-1 down to beat Vitoria in the Europa League. Then on the weekend, Arsenal drew 2-2 at home with Crystal Palace in the Premier League after having been 2-0 up. So once again, arsenal are having troubles keeping it tight at the back. Not what you want for a visit to Anfield.

In their last six away games in all competitions this season, Arsenal have taken a mixed W2 D2 L2 record. They have picked up the two clean sheets only in that sequence. Only in two of those half a dozen away games, have Arsenal managed to score more than one goal in a game. In the last round of the Carabao Cup Arsenal took a 5-0 home win over Nottingham Forest. That is three wins in their last four ties in the competition. Arsenal have taken just a W1 D1 L1 record from their last three away games in the Cup, failing to score in two of those three.

Liverpool v Arsenal Predictions

Liverpool to win: Arsenal’s defence, or lack, therefore, means that they just can’t be trusted by punters to go and handle themselves at Anfield. Liverpool should be able to expose the cracks in the backline of the visitors. Home win & both teams to score.
