Liverpool – Arsenal, Premier League – Prediction

Liverpool will press high.

This is the Merseysiders’ style. They rely on high and aggressive pressing, winning the ball in the opponent’s half, followed by a shot. They have a monstrous attack – Ekitike has integrated perfectly into the team and has already shown his scoring instinct. However, the team has obvious defensive problems. They conceded 2 goals against Bournemouth in the first round and then nearly lost a 2-goal lead against 10-man Newcastle. For this match, Frimpong will also be absent, and Connor Bradley has just resumed training and is unlikely to be ready for the clash.

Arsenal will rely on set-pieces.

The Gunners are the best team from set-piece situations in the Premier League over the past few seasons. They also scored from a corner against Leeds in their previous clash. The comfortable 5-0 victory gives them confidence for this match. Arsenal have also strengthened with Eze, which further increases the team’s creativity in attack. They will try to take advantage of Liverpool’s defensive problems and will be eager for revenge for the Premier League title lost to Liverpool last season.

We are in for an intense clash.

Two teams that are title contenders. They understand the importance of this clash. Both teams possess exceptional quality in attack. Liverpool will rely on their lightning-fast offense, while Arsenal will look to punish the Merseysiders’ defensive mistakes, where they are further weakened by injuries.
