Arsenal will welcome Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday in the English Premier League (EPL).
The clash between the English giant clubs is one of the best fixtures of the season as the game is full of excitement and exhilaration.
The home side will hope to continue their unbeaten run against the Reds since their defeat against Manchester City and Chelsea earlier this campaign.

IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS
Arsenal have been in an excellent form since their two losses at the early stage of the season, finding the net 22 times in that period. However, the Gunners have been extremely woeful as they have shipped in nine (9) goals even though facing mid-table teams like Fulham, Leicester, Watford etc. They will face Liverpool who have been superlative both defensively and offensively. The visitors have banged in 20 goals, conceding 4 goals.
With the defensive frailties of Arsenal, it is expected that the relentless attacking prowess of the attacking trio will come to the fore. The combination of Aubameyang and Lacazette has also proven beneficial as both have been lethal, both have scored 11 goals with the Gabonese leading the goal chart in the league.
