The Reds will take on the Gunners on matchday 36 in the Premier League

Liverpool will host Arsenal on Sunday at the iconic Anfield Stadium as two Premier League giants will lock horns against each other. Just a few days back, the Reds were crowned the champions of this season’s Premier League. Arne Slot helped the Reds to win the League title as they were clearly the best English side this season.

In 35 games, they won 25 matches, drew seven and lost three times. With 82 points on the table, they are at the top. They have 15 15-point lead at the top, and they didn’t give away their top position from the beginning. Throughout the season, they were consistent and were able to get good positive results throughout this season’s campaign. Even though they will be disappointed not to win other trophies, surely there are a lot of positives to take.

Arsenal will be very disappointed as their brilliant Champions League campaign came to an end. They lost to PSG by a 3-1 aggregate score, and once again, it’s a trophyless season for Mikel Arteta’s men. Despite playing some really good football, they lost the fixture and now will aim to finish the season as high as possible in the league.

In 35 games, they won 18 matches, drew 13 and lost four games. With 67 points on the table, they are second in the league. They can’t afford to lose their focus as Manchester City are just three points behind them. The Gunners will have to give thier all to get all three points against the Champions. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Players to Watch

Cody Gakpo (Liverpool)

The strongest aspect of Gakpo’s game is his ability to find shooting opportunities, when he does particularly well when moving inside from a wide starting position. He also has the ability to continue his run into the space between the opposition’s right back and centre-back.

The Dutchman is an agile attacker who adjusts his body shape well inside the penalty area to finish on the run or control the ball while moving at pace before shooting across goal. Physically, he is strong and is a key player for the Reds. He has played 46 games this season, in which he scored 17 goals and provided five assists.

Saka defends well in offensive areas. High pressing, opposition half recoveries, and he attacks well through defensive areas. In simple terms, Saka is a mid-volume, high-accuracy dribbler.

Moving the ball through high-value areas, breaking lines and progressing the ball while in possession of it is a key part of Saka’s attacking game.
