Liverpool vs Arsenal Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Pre-season friendlies 2024

Matches between these two teams have always been fiery and fun to watch.

Liverpool are going through a transition phase under their new Manager Arne Slot who has been given the role of filling the void left by Jurgen Klopp. He has a massive task to fill the boots of a man who guided Liverpool to the very top of European football. 

Under Arne Slot, the team will be playing possession-based football evidenced by their 63% stats from the Real Betis game. The team secured a narrow victory over the Spanish outfit after Dominik Szoboszlai scored the only goal of the game. Now, the real test awaits for them as they take on Arsenal in this clash. 

Arsenal have made a bright start to their preseason tour after securing a win over Bournemouth in the penalty shoot-out after the initial score was tied at 1-1. The Gunners followed it up with a 2-1 victory over Manchester United in the last match. 

There is a hunger about this Arsenal side who narrowly missed out on the Premier League title on the last day of the season. However, they now have an impressive squad to fight for with Jurrien Timber joining the squad after a lengthy spell on the sidelines. The Gunners have also made a statement signing in the form of Riccardo Calafiori for the new season.

Players to Watch

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) 

The record goal-scorer for the Reds, Mohamed Salah had a fantastic end to the season after scoring 25 goals for the team in all competitions while also laying on another 13 assists. He has already earned himself a legendary stature after scoring an astonishing 211 goals since signing for the club in the summer window of 2017. Mohamed Salah’s pace and clinical finishing in front of the goal make him a dangerous outlet for the team going forward.

Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal) 

The Brazilian international has emerged as one of the best wingers in the world during his time with the Gunners. Gabriel Martinelli is an explosive winger who makes full use of his pace and trickery to get past opponents at ease. Last season was a fruitful one for him, after helping Arsenal mount a serious title challenge. He scored eight goals and also provided five assists to play an important role for the team.

Injury & Team News

Liverpool are missing several players due to their participation in the Euro and Copa America. Curtis Jones has been sidelined for this match after picking up an injury against Betis in the last match. The good news for them is that the likes of Diogo Jota, and Andrew Robertson are back with the team. 

Meanwhile, Arsenal are likely going to start with the front three of Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz, and Gabriel Martinelli. The return of Julian Timber from the injury has come at the right time as he aims to begin the tournament as a starter. We expect Mikel Arteta to field a strong team here.
