The Gunners are playing great this season and are currently leading the table, while Liverpool’s form is far below expectations. Jurgen Klopp’s side won their Champions League match earlier this week so it remains to be seen if they can keep the momentum going.

Arsenal Team News
Mikel Arteta’s players played another great game in the last round. In the North London derby, they completely outplayed Tottenham and won 3-1. Thomas Partey, Gabriel Jesus and Granit Xhaka scored in that triumph, leaving Arsenal alone in first place with 21 points.
The Gunners continue to play attacking football and simply love to control the rhythm of the game. They are most successful in this and this style of play allows them to score a lot of goals and most importantly to win.
In the first eight matches, they scored 20 goals and are the second-most-efficient team in the entire league. Gabriel Jesus is the team’s top scorer with five goals, while Gabriel Martinelli and Martin Odegaard scored three each.
Mikel Arteta has no new problems with injured players. Emile Smith Rowe and Mohamed Elneny were absent for a while.
Liverpool Team News
On the other hand, Liverpool’s start to the season is the worst in the last few seasons. They achieved two wins, four draws, and one loss, so they are currently in the ninth position and have 11 points less than Arsenal.
The defensive line, which was the strongest part of the team in previous seasons, is unstable and prone to mistakes. Since the beginning of August, they have registered only two clean sheets, which is a really miserable performance. The Reds drew 3-3 at Brighton last weekend and Leandro Trossard outwitted the Liverpool defense three times.
Jurgen Klopp’s men routinely beat Rangers 2-0 in the Champions League earlier this week and that could lift the squad’s spirits ahead of this important fixture. They were dominant from the first minute to the last. The midfield tandem of Thiago Alcantara – Henderson did a great job. When this line is working properly, Liverpool plays very, very well.
Coach Jurgen Klopp will not be able to count on the injured Arthur, Robertson, Jones, Keita, and Oxlade-Chamberlain.
H2H
Arsenal and Liverpool met four times last season. The Reds won three times 4-0, 2-0, and 2-0, and once there was no winner 0-0.
Expected lineups
Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Ramsdale; Zinchenko, Gabriel, Saliba, White; Partey, Xhaka; Odegaard, Martinelli, Saka; Jesus
Liverpool (4-3-3): Alisson; Robertson, Van Dijk, Matip, Alexander-Arnold; Fabinho, Henderson, Thiago; Salah, Diaz, Firmino
Arsenal vs. Liverpool Prediction
We expect a high-quality, exciting, and dynamic clash. Both teams like to attack with a large number of players in the final third of the pitch, so we believe we will see plenty of scoring opportunities on both sides. Accordingly, we expect the team’s offensive lines to be focused and precise.
