Arsenal take on Liverpool this weekend and Paul Merson has revealed his prediction for the game.
The two sides are both in the Premier League title race along with Manchester City. That makes this weekend’s clash at the Emirates a hugely important one, and Merson believes this is a must-win game for the Gunners.
Paul Merson predicts Arsenal vs Liverpool result
Liverpool are currently on top of the Premier League table, while Arsenal are third, five points behind Jurgen Klopp’s side.
The Reds are having a fine season, aren’t they? They are in with a chance of winning the quadruple this term, but Arsenal will be hoping to spoil their party this weekend.
The Gunners have now won back-to-back Premier League games after going on a terrible run. They have looked really good recently, but Liverpool will be a much tougher test.
Paul Merson has claimed that Arsenal will be out of the title race if they lose on Sunday. He reveals that he initially backed the Gunners to win, but after watching Liverpool destroy Chelsea this week, he has changed his mind.
The pundit wrote on Sportskeeda: “This is once again a must-win game for Arsenal. If they lose, they are out of the Premier League title race and a draw is no good either, so they absolutely have to go for it.
