Liverpool and Arsenal will go head to head on Saturday in 2019/20 Premier League as the season moves ahead. Both teams will be looking for a win here.
Kick-off : 5:30 PM (Local)
Venue : Anfield, Liverpool
Arsenal have had a brilliant start to their 2019/20 Premier League campaign after winning two games out of two and being the only team along with Liverpool to have a 100% record so far. They will look to continue their form.
The Gunners will look to play the brand of soccer that they have been playing. At present they are second in the points table after a couple of games with six points, they are behind Liverpool due to lesser goals being scored.
Now they have a chance to overtake Liverpool despite a recent run of poor results at Anfield. Arsenal should play a game which produces goals instead of being defensive against The Reds.
On the other hand, Liverpool should be proud of the way they have played this term so far. They must continue playing their brand of football.
Winning the Premier League is a dream of Liverpool and to fulfil it they will have to take every chance as they come. The Reds are at the moment first in the points table with six points after two games and rivals city are behind.
I think Arsenal at home is a good chance to get another win and maintain parity between them and City at top. Though an all-round performance will be needed with Defenders and Attackers having a good game.
Liverpool are ahead on the head to head against Arsenal and they will take heart from the fact.
Team news and possible line-ups
Naby Keita is doubtful for The Reds. While Nathaniel Clyne will not be available as due to injury.
As for Arsenal, Nicolas Pepe is available and should play.
Liverpool XI : Adrian, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Salah, Firmino, Mane.

Prediction
I think this game might end a 2-2 draw.
