Liverpool vs Arsenal preview

The last EFL Cup meeting between this pair at this ground proved particularly memorable, with the Gunners running out 6-3 winners back in 2007.

Although it is obviously unrealistic to expect a similar scoreline, the visitors will at least back themselves to have some joy in front of goal after failing to score just once in 19 fixtures.

What’s more, Jurgen Klopp’s team has not looked particularly solid this campaign – keeping just three clean sheets in 16 matches in all competitions.

Nevertheless, with Liverpool having also found the net in 19 of their last 20 matches, odds of 2.25 look well worth backing on over 3.5 goals being scored for their eighth game in nine against Arsenal.
