Arsenal v Liverpool

Arsenal vs Liverpool Preview

Sunday afternoon brings us the most attractive fixture in this weekend's Premier League action as third placed Arsenal play host to the current league leaders Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium with Arsenal looking to bounce back from a highly disappointing 2-0 defeat away from home at Bournemouth last weekend, while Liverpool racked up a fourth league win on the trot in last week's 2-1 home win against Chelsea.

Arsenal had previously produced an unbeaten start to this new Premier League campaign as The Gunners had registered five wins along with two draws from their opening seven games of the season but the north London club will be hoping they can make amends in Sunday afternoon's home fixture at the Emirates Stadium.

Victories against Wolves, Aston Villa, arch-rivals Tottenham, Leicester City and Southampton had handed Mikel Arteta's side a decent start to this new campaign where Arsenal will be desperate to get the better of title rivals, Manchester City, this time around.

The bigger picture shows The Gunners have been dealt just the single defeat within their previous 14 league matches overall along with collecting no fewer than 11 wins in the process, while six out of Arsenal's 10 matches overall in the English top flight have also resulted in Under 2.5 goals as well.

Liverpool recorded a fourth consecutive win in the Premier League last weekend at home against Chelsea and the merseyside club will fancy their chances of gaining a result of some sort in the nation's capital this Sunday afternoon having also registered victories against Bournemouth, Wolves, Crystal Palace and Chelsea respectively.

The Reds have also succumbed to a disappointing defeat in the early stages of this new Premier League season as Arne Slot's side were dealt a shock 1-0 defeat at Anfield by Nottingham Forest but the bigger picture suggests this was just a temporary blip for Liverpool.

Indeed, Liverpool have slipped to just that single defeat within their previous 12 matches overall in the domestic top flight whilst also picking up no fewer than nine wins along the way as well, so the visitors will also feel they have legitimate claims on the three points this Sunday in the nation's capital.

Results away from home have also been steady as Liverpool have been dealt just two losses in their last 19 outings on the road in the Premier League, so Arne Slot and his side will be eager to extend their one-point lead at the top of the table with a win here.

Arsenal v Liverpool Verdict

However, this could be easier said than done as this upcoming fixture is expected to be a very tightly fought affair in what could also be a low-scoring encounter especially as Liverpool have kept five clean sheets in eight games to date.

Therefore, our main bet will be Under 2.5 goals @ 2.00

Other side bets worth considering:

Liverpool win @ 2.90

Correct Score: Liverpool 1-0 @ 12.00
