Liverpool vs Arsenal match preview
Will Arsenal reestablish an eight-point gap at the top and come through this acid test at a ground they’ve not enjoyed visiting in recent season?
The Gunners’ last victory at Anfield came in September 2012, with Mikel Arteta in midfield that day, losing their last six league fixtures there, conceding a whopping 37 goals since that most-recent win.
But this is a different Arsenal team, one that is resilient and, at time, irresistible.
Last weekend, they made it seven consecutive wins by smashing Leeds 4-1, with Gabriel Jesus bagging a brace, while Benjamin White and Granit Xhaka were also on target.
This means Mikel Arteta’s team kick off five points clear of Manchester City, with those two set to meet in just 17 days time.
Will Arsenal leave Merseyside with three precious points, claiming a statement victory in their title push?
On Tuesday night, the Reds played out a comically low-quality goalless draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, thankful that Alisson was able to preserve the point.
Having been smashed 4-1 at the Etihad three days earlier, Jürgen Klopp’s side have won just one of eight away games since Boxing Day.
At home though, Liverpool remain imperious, winning nine of 13 Premier League fixtures, most-recently putting seven past Manchester United.
So, will the Reds dent Arsenal’s title chances in an Easter Sunday blockbuster simply not to be missed?
Liverpool team news
On Tuesday, Jürgen Klopp dropped all of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Andy Robertson, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah to the bench, while Virgil van Dijk didn’t travel due to illness.
However, all of that quintet are set to return here, with Klopp confirming that van Dijk is available for selection.
Diogo Jota will be hoping for a start, given that he’s scored eight times in 12 appearances against Arsenal.
Similarly, Salah has scored eight in 12 Premier League games against Arsenal, five of which have come at Anfield.
Thiago has returned to full training this week, hoping to feature for the first time since 4 February due to a hip flexor issue.
Fellow-midfielder James Milner came on for his 610th Premier League appearance in mid-week, still 42 short of Gareth Barry’s record.
Predicted XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, van Dijk, Konaté, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Jones; Salah, Gakpo, Jota.
Arsenal team news
Arsenal’s key absentees are both defenders, with Takehiro Tomiyasu ruled out for the rest of the season, while William Saliba’s status is unknown due to back spasms.
So, Rob Holding will keep his place alongside Gabriel at centre-back.
Just two goalkeepers in Premier League history have kept 10+ clean sheets away from home in a single season, Petr Čech (twice) and Ederson, with Aaron Ramsdale one away from joining this list.
At the other end of the field, Gabriel Jesus, who scored for the first time since 1 October last weekend, has netted four times in just six Premier League starts against Liverpool.
On that very same afternoon, 1 October, Leandro Trossard bagged a hat-trick at Anfield, all with his weaker left foot, while still at Brighton.
However, the Belgian is set to be on the bench, with Bukayo Saka, who’d been unwell, returning to the XI.
Predicted XI (4-1-4-1): Ramsdale; White, Holding, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Partey, Xhaka, Ødegaard; Saka, Martinelli; Jesus.
