Premier League champions Liverpool welcome Arsenal to Anfield on Sunday for a top-of-the-table clash that will have not only points vital for the Gunners but also pride at stake.
While Arne Slot's men have already sealed the title, Arsenal arrive with Champions League qualification still hanging in the balance. Anfield, however, hasn’t been a kind place to them for over a decade.
🔴🔴Liverpool Out to Finish Strong as Farewell Tour Begins | Home Win = 2.10💵
The Reds may have suffered a 3-1 loss at Chelsea last week, but with the league title already secured, their focus has shifted to hitting the 90-point mark and giving departing stars a worthy send-off.
Arne Slot's side is gunning for an eighth consecutive home league win. They've netted at least twice in 14 of their last 15 home games since a shock September loss to Nottingham Forest.
This clash marks the penultimate home game for Real Madrid-bound Trent Alexander-Arnold and a few other players who might be headed elsewhere after this season.
🔴⚪Arsenal Hope to Give Gunners Something to Smile About | Away Win = 3.71💵
Arsenal are in danger of slipping out of the top four following three straight defeats, including a painful 3-1 UCL semi-final aggregate loss to PSG that extended their European drought.
The Gunners have now dropped 21 points from winning positions—tied for their worst-ever mark in a Premier League season. Their recent form has undone much of their earlier campaign momentum.
They haven’t won at Anfield since 2012, and despite a five-game unbeaten run vs Liverpool in the league, this could be their toughest test yet, given their fragile confidence and Liverpool’s form at home.
🗝️Key Players & Team News📰
Liverpool are missing Joe Gomez (hamstring) and Tyler Morton (shoulder), but otherwise boast a clean bill of health.
Van Dijk is set to become just the fourth Dutchman with 300 Premier League appearances. TAA is expected to start from the bench.
Arsenal welcome back Calafiori, who may start over the tired Lewis-Skelly. However, Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Magalhães, Tomiyasu, and Havertz remain sidelined, limiting Mikel Arteta’s options.
