3. Can Arsenal take advantage of Liverpool’s up-and-down form?

It still feels odd seeing us as favourites over Liverpool, even if it is only slightly. But that is fair, considering what both teams have produced this season.

Can the Gunners take advantage of the Reds’ patchy form? Two wins in their last five games in all competitions don’t exactly spell the Liverpool side that tore through the league when they felt like it.

First on the table. On a seven-game win streak at the Emirates. Another monster match incoming.

The opportunity is there for the Gunners to take a huge scalp. At home, in form, and a chance to put a 14-point gap between themselves and Liverpool.

Can they do it? We sure hope so.
