Liverpool edging Arsenal this Friday Night !!!

Arsenal welcomes Liverpool to the Emirates Stadium this Friday night for the crunch clash that winner most probably have edge on top four position. Arsenal could leapfrog Liverpool to the fourth position.  One points separates both teams.

 On the recent meetings , Liverpool may fancy on taking 3 points from the emirates stadium. But Arsenal are in a great form apart from losing to Manchester United. No one has scored more goals at home second to Manchester City. Ozil is having a form of his life despite the contract edging out. Whereas there is more concern on the form of Chilean forward Alexis. 24 goals to the previous campaign in all competitions, this season Alexis has scored only 3 on the open play. We have to wait till January whether he will stay with Arsenal or move to the most probably future club Manchester City. 

But in the recent games, there is revive in the form from the old home grown boy Jack Wilshere. He is being pivotal in the past two games being man of the match the win over Newcastle. His ability to hit long pass, ball through has been brilliant in the recent game. In the game against Liverpool , I would fancy Wilshere notching the winner. Since Ramsey is injured, Wilshere would probably start against Liverpool.

Coming to Liverpool, they have been brilliant in the front and midfield. And in last 4 games they have been brilliant at the back also with Lovren in the heart of defense. Mohammad Salah most probably will notch Player of the Year with recent forms, having tough competition from City's De Bruyne. Coutinho , also having issues regarding the transfer saga to Barcelona, is being more devastated in recent Liverpool games scoring and also creating chances. He is a sensational footballer (let me remind you that also). Although having more criticism of rotation policy by Klopp, Liverpool are being gel at the moment. With the pace of salah, Mane and firmino with Coutinho behind all three would create more threat to Arsenal.

My prediction would Liverpool edging Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium. We have to wait till friday. Lets enjoy the match whoever wins it.
