Arsenal face a biggie as they welcome Liverpool to the Emirates looking to jump into the top four. Here is all you need to know and how to watch.

Last time these two teams met, Liverpool fired enough chain shot to wreck the mast of the Arsenal ship, leaving them floundering in the open sea. It was a debilitating loss, but changes came immediately following, although not comprehensive changes.

Now, the Gunners will be out for revenge. Both teams have been remarkably similar this year. A high-powered attack has been the go-to for both sides, with at least seven players between the two clubs capable of breaking a game open.

Similarly, their respective defenses have not been all that solid. Although, lately at least, the Gunners have turned that around and found more success in their defense with their offense struggling to bulge the back of the net.

With Liverpool on the docket, that all has to change. This is going to be a massively open affair and relying on your defense to keep that fearsome attack out is far less likely than trying to match and then outdo it with your own attack.

It’s a matter of Salah, Mane, Coutinho vs Alexis Sanchez, Mesut Ozil and Alexandre Lacazette. These are the big guys. There is a supporting cast when you toss in the Firmino’s and the Jack Wilshere‘s, but it’s the big three against the big three. Whichever big three emerges more effective is likely to be the difference-maker.

That all said, if you want to boil it down to who is the biggest of those respective big threes, it can be seen as Ozil vs Salah. On hard statistics alone, obviously Salah is taking the cake, but Ozil’s current form, despite the lack of massive returns, has been pristine.

Getting into team news, the Gunners have Shkodran Mustafi back from injury but no one else is returning to health.

Liverpool, meanwhile, may be able to call on Joel Matip after all.

Then, of course, there is Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who will undoubtedly be hoping to start and who should receive a nasty reception given the precedence of his last ever Arsenal match last time we faced Liverpool.

Getting on with it, here is all you need to know in terms of where to watch and the match facts:
