Arsenal vs Liverpool prediction: How will Premier League fixture play out tonight?

Three points for Arsenal on Wednesday night would go a long way toward securing the top-four finish in the Premier League which they crave this season.

However, in their way are the most in-form side in Europe: no club in any league is enjoying a run longer than Liverpool’s eight-match win streak right now.

The Reds have netted 21 times in that run, conceding only twice, highlighting the task which stands in front of Mikel Arteta and his side in midweek.

If the visitors claim the spoils, they will reduce the gap at the top of the table to just one point between themselves and leaders Man City, following their draw at Crystal Palace on Monday night.

Takehiro Tomiyasu is the only injury absentee for Arsenal so Cedric Soares should continue at right-back. Mikel Arteta could name an unchanged side again, though Emile Smith Rowe will hope for a recall.

Liverpool have Roberto Firmino, Thiago and Ibrahima Konate back, while Mohamed Salah is back in training too after sitting out Monday following a minor weekend injury against Brighton. Diogo Jota will also be pushing for a recall in attack.
