The extremely tight matches between Arsenal and Liverpool continue in a match of round 24 of the Premier League. The games between these two teams are rarely decided by difference of more than 1 goal and it is likely this tradition will be retained and once again we will enjoy a great derby. This meeting is very important for both teams, because they are located next to each other in the standings and are direct competitors in the fight for the European competitions. If an away win occurs, Liverpool will catch up their opponent on points.
In the list of injured players for Arsenal are included four footballers, none of which has a very serious injury and it would not be a surprise if any of them appears in the game. Liverpool players have a slight disadvantage, because they have only two days to rest before the match against Arsenal. Liverpool got a devastating loss of Oldham in a match of the FA Cup, which completed the big surprises in this tournament. Arsenal in turn, is one of the few teams in the Premier League which moves on in the tournament after win over Brighton. Undoubtedly, with this victory, with the higher place in the standings and with the home team advantage, the players of Arsene Wenger will come into this match with greater confidence than their opponent.
Daniel Sturridge has proved to be a very successful purchase of Liverpool. He reinforced a lot the team`s attack and it is only a matter of time for him to form a deadly offensive tandem with Luis Suarez. Definitely with these two exceptional attacking players, Liverpool seems very dangerous up in front. Arsenal's defense showed some significant mistakes in important matches and it is likely that in this game the hosts will concede a goal. Analyzing the attack power of both teams, and the gaps in their defenses, we can expect a game with more goals.
In recent years the "Gunners" perform very successfully against this opponent. They are unbeaten in 9 of the last 10 games against Liverpool in all competitions. Surely the guests, as always with great passion, will give everything to break this poor statistics for them. The experience of Arsene Wenger, however, against that of Brendan Rodgers may be decisive in such a match. Undoubtedly we can expect one extremely exciting derby.
