Both Teams to Score
Arsenal face another stern test of their title aspirations at Anfield on Sunday – a venue they haven’t enjoyed a win at in the Premier League since 2012. The Gunners have won seven assignments on the bounce in the lead-up to Sunday’s tussle, though their poor record on Merseyside means it better to turn to the goals markets. Jurgen Klopp’s side remain vulnerable on the road, however, they have failed to score just once in 13 games on home soil, while Arsenal have notched in 13 of their 14 away matches to date in the top tier. This one has goals written all over it and we recommend a stake on both teams to score for the first of our football betting tips.
Over 2.5 Goals
Arsenal have really stepped on the gas since losing to Man City in February, and alongside securing seven straight wins, the Gunners have scored a meaty 23 times along the way. The return of Gabriel Jesus from injury only increases their firepower and Arsenal have enough of a swagger about them to go for Liverpool’s jugular on Sunday. The Reds have buried at least two goals in five of their last six league fixtures at Anfield however, and they have enough lethal finishers in their ranks to fight fire with fire. With those factors aligned, a stake on over 2.5 goals is a snug fit for our second Liverpool vs Arsenal prediction.

Let's take a closer look at the latest markets, Liverpool – Arsenal odds and probability figures ahead of Sunday’s heavyweight clash below.
Liverpool odds: 9/5 (2.80) – 35.7%
Draw odds: 27/10 (3.70) – 27%
Arsenal odds: 36/25 (2.44) – 41%
It’s a rarity at Anfield, but Arsenal are the bookmakers’ expected winners on Sunday, with a 41% probability of success attached to their chances. Gunners star Gabriel Jesus could be of interest at 15/8 (2.88) to score anytime for the second game in a row, while it’s interesting to note that a 1-1 draw at 6/1 (7.0) is the skinniest price on offer in the correct score market. That outcome comes with a 14.3% implied probability in tow.
Liverpool vs Arsenal Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Liverpool vs Arsenal lineups and team news for Sunday’s Premier League skirmish below.
Liverpool
With Stefan Bajcetic and Naby Keita confirmed absentees and Thiago not quite ready to make his comeback, Fabinho, Jordan Henderson and James Milner could be deployed in midfield for Liverpool on Sunday. Luis Diaz is expected to miss out for another week as he steps up his recovery.
Predicted Lineup for Liverpool: Alisson – Alexander-Arnold, van Dijk, Konate, Robertson – Milner, Fabinho, Henderson – Salah, Gakpo, Jota
Arsenal
Arsenal are virtually at full-strength, though William Saliba is absent in defence. Rob Holding could slot in there, while Gabriel Martinelli will hope to fend off the impactful Leandro Trossard on the left flank. Gabriel Jesus should start up front.
Predicted Lineup for Arsenal: Ramsdale – White, Holding, Magalhaes, Zinchenko – Partey, Xhaka, Odegaard – Saka, Martinelli, Jesus
Player to Watch – Bukayo Saka
Winger Bukayo Saka scored twice when Arsenal beat Liverpool in a dramatic five-goal thriller in October and the 21-year-old can always be relied upon to produce the goods in the biggest games for the Gunners. Saka should test the Reds’ defence again in Sunday’s rematch.
Starting Lineups
Official lineups are usually released approximately one hour before kick-off.
