Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Arsenal in 9th and Liverpool in 7th place.
- Arsenal have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Arsenal form and stats
6-3-5 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Arsenal so far this season.
Arsenal travelled for their previous game, a trip to West Ham United that ended 3-3. Preceding that match was a Europa League defeat to Olympiakos Piraeus (0-1).
Late drama in the game against West Ham United as Arsenal were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until Alexandre Lacazette popped out and made it level in the 82nd minute. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
Arsenal has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 14 matches. Arsenal's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 15 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

The travelling fans enjoy Liverpool's attacking play in away games, having scored 26 goals in 14 league matches away. 18 goals have been conceded by Liverpool in these games.
