Arsenal face a very different Liverpool to the one Manchester City beat

Arsenal visit Anfield on Sunday holding a six-point lead over Liverpool, who enter the match on a five-game winning streak. Arsenal Insider argues that Liverpool will pose a much stronger challenge than in their previous 3-0 home defeat to Manchester City, which was altered by a Ryan Gravenberch red card and significant injury absences. With Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo back in form alongside Florian Wirtz and Bradley Barcola, Liverpool's attack is seen as a major threat.

Arsenal Insider suggests Mikel Arteta's side faces attacking concerns due to the absence of Bukayo Saka and Max Dowman. The outlet argues that despite the presence of Kai Havertz, Martin Odegaard, and Eberechi Eze, Arsenal lack Liverpool's dynamic firepower. Arteta, who is still seeking his first Anfield win as manager, will rely on defensive structure and set-pieces, while Liverpool will be without the injured Dominik Szoboszlai.
