Arsenal host Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday in what is expected to be one of the Gunners’ toughest tests of the 2023/24 Premier League season.The Reds are unbeaten and have drawn once at home in all competitions this season, while Arsenal have lost all four of their home games in all competitions this season.
Manchester United held Liverpool to a goalless draw after stopping their bus last Sunday, but Chris Sutton does not expect the north London club to take a similar approach at Anfield. However, the BBC pundit does not believe Arsenal will leave Merseyside with a point, predicting in his column that Jurgen Klopp’s side will secure a 2-1 win. “Arsenal will be braver than Manchester United at Anfield last week,” wrote Sutton.“But the gunners are probably more attacking than Erik Ten Haag’s side. “I think the Gunners will be very cautious because they are not as wide as they were last season, but they are still a threat.”There are arguments that we don’t have enough centre-forwards, I understand that, but they have shown they can score from all areas of the team.” “So I think it will be difficult. But Liverpool are at home and it doesn’t look like they will take another place. They only know one way to play. “They will take the game to Arsenal and I think they will have the advantage.”The Gunners lost 1-0 to Aston Villa last time out. Aston Villa have never been in the Premier League and will be looking to go one better this time around. A win would further strengthen their title credentials and prove they have the ability to go one step further this season.
