Arsenal vs Liverpool Score Prediction

The defeat to Manchester City on January 1 is being thought about a lot in the build up to this game. Arsenal would eventually lose that match in injury time, but not before an valiant performance going toe-to-toe with the best side in the world.

Who knows what would have happened had Gabriel not been given his marching orders. Even with the penalty it was felt that this game was in Arsenal’s hands.

Given the quality of City and Liverpool – two sides often mentioned in the same breath – the level of performance in that game is seen as something that can be replicated on Wednesdat There is no reason to suggest it can’t be.

But while Arsenal are seeking a statement win that would cement their place as the side leading the top four charge, Liverpool are aiming to lift the title. They can’t afford any slip-ups at any stage with City narrowly in front.

Onlookers will learn a lot about this Arsenal team from Wednesday night. They couldn’t be in much finer fettle heading into the game and confidence is at an all-time high since Arteta took charge, so in terms of preparation it’s near perfect with the exception of a short turnover between matches.

Whatever the outcome, this game is sure to expend an outstanding amount of energy across the team who have just 64 hours before they’re playing at Villa Park on Saturday lunchtime. For that reason, some points will be richly welcome for their inevitably significant output.

Will they get them? Well, Liverpool are just too good, aren’t they? Transitionally they could exploit those spaces behind Granit Xhaka all night long. They probably will, too.
