Hmm, Club football takes center stage once again with 4 games going down in the EPL today.
Chelsea take on West Bromwish Albion at the Bridge, Leeds United welcome Sheffield United to Elland Road, Leicester City face off against Manchester City at King Power Stadium, and Arsenal host Liverpool at Emirate Stadium.
We've analyzed 2 of these 4 games in our last 2 articles, leaving us with 1 article to go as promised, and you can definitely guess which of the remaining 2 games will be our focus in today's article without having to look at the Topic of this article.
You will agree with me that this game is most likely going to be a huge one considering Liverpool's desire to secure a top 4 finish, as well as, Arsenal's desire to secure an intercontinental competition spot.
I believe we've had enough of the introduction to this game, shall we proceed to the analysis?
I will be starting off with the home team as in my usual style,
ARSENAL:
1) The Gunners' slightly better results in their last 8 games, compared to the Reds is one stat that puts this game in favor of the former.
They've managed 4 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, whilst the Reds have 4 wins and 4 draws in as many games.
A good one for Mikel Arteta's men, isn't it?
2) The Gunners' good run of games at home against the Reds in their last 8 games in the Premier League is another stat that tilts this game in their favor
They have 3 wins, 4 draws, and 1 loss in these encounters.
This stat should have some positive impact on Mikel Arteta's men, or do you have a contrary opinion?
Let's move on to Jurgen Kloop's men, shall we?
LIVERPOOL:
1) The Reds' better "head to head" over the Gunners in the last 8 open games between both sides in all competitions is one stat that stands out for them.
They've won 3, drawn 4, and lost 1 of these games.
A good one for Jurgen Kloop's men, isn't it?
2) A more important stat that favors the Reds is their impressive run of games away from home of late.
Most Football Lovers know how woeful Liverpool have been at home, enduring 6 consecutive losses since their loss to Burnley.
However, their impressive results away from Anfield should not be forgotten. They've won all their last 4 games away from Anfield, scoring 7 goals and conceding none in the process.
You really don't want to joke with this stat, do you? I bet Mikel Arteta and his men won't either.
CONCLUSION:
Hmm, with no disrespect to the Gunners, I think a draw is the best they can get here, with Liverpool very much likely to be the winner if a winner emerges at all.
Let's get your thoughts, predictions, and anticipated scorelines on this game, they will be greatly appreciated.
Love always From your Football Analyst and Writer, IbkDaGreat.
