The Reds will look to grab three important points

Liverpool are gearing up for a crucial Premier League on their home turf. They are locked in a fierce battle in the league against heavyweights Arsenal and Manchester City for the title. Currently occupying the second spot in the league standings with 71 points, Liverpool shares the same points tally as league leaders Arsenal, who edge them out due to a superior goal difference.

The Eagles have accumulated a total of 30 points from their 31 matches played, comprising seven wins, nine draws, and 15 losses thus far.
