Liverpool Vs Arsenal EPL Round 3(28/09/2020) Match Previews and Predictions

The hottest teams in English Football at the moment LIVERPOOL and ARSENAL will face off on Monday 28th of September 2020 for the Matchday 3 fixtures at ANFIELD.

 

Liverpool picked up where they left off after winning the 2019/2020 Premier League season as they won their first two league games against Leeds(4-3) and away against Chelsea(0-2).

Arsenal won the FA Cup and they defeated Liverpool for the Community Shield on penalties. Arsenal started the league season with a back to back win by beating Fulham 3-0 away from and won 2-1 against West Ham.

Jurgen KLopp is likely to play a similar team to the one that won Chelsea 2-0 last weekend which saw Fabinho been paired with Van Dijk at the central defense, Thiago Alcantara might start at the base of the Midfield as Jordan Henderson is unlikely to play due to thigh strain.

Arsenal have a number of injuries defensively as Pablo Mari, Shkodran Mustafi, Emile Smith Rowe,  Sokratis,  Kieran Tierney, and Calum Chambers are ruled out or doubts for the game. Liverpool will  be hoping to take advantage of the injury issues Arsenal has. 

Liverpool are unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 games against Arsenal. Liverpool has 5W, 6D, 1L over the course of those 12 games. Arsenal's only win in that time came last season at the Emirates.  

Ten of the last 11 games between this two saw both teams score goals. This is unlikely to see a win to nil or both teams not to score. The fire power is heavy on both sides.    

 Thirteen of the last sixteen games between the clubs finished with Over 2.5 goals scored.

PREDICTION: The game should see Over 2.5 match goals.
