Saturday's round of the English top-flight football competition will be closed by a duel of traditional teams when Liverpool welcome Arsenal to Anfield.

Background information, news and team form

Who would have guessed that after the horrific opening of the season that Arsenal went through, these two teams would be competing for the 4th place in the table at the end of November, and with a dream of a Champions League place. Arsenal has struggled with many injuries at the start of the season and Liverpool on the other hand have several mainstays back, especially in terms of their defensive ranks. With the return of Virgil van Dijk to Liverpool's defensive ranks, the Reds' defence has risen to the same quality of the season before last when Liverpool won the title. In addition, the main attacking trio of Salah, Mane, Firminho has regained its form and is complemented by Diego Jota. However, Liverpool still lacks a quality bench, and in case of injury or any other failure of one of the starting eleven, coach Jurgen Klopp has a problem replacing him with quality. In the Champions League, which Liverpool is playing this year, after 4 games played, Jurgen Klopp's charges managed to secure the qualification to the knockout stage from the first place in the table, and the Reds fans can look forward to the next stint of their darlings in the millionaire competition. As already mentioned, Arsenal experienced one of the worst starts to the season in the last decade, which was complemented by injuries to several key players. After a botched August, many Arsenal fans sarcastically condemned their club to relegation to the second division, so it must come as a pleasant surprise to them that after 11 rounds played they are only 2 points behind the top four, which they can also get in their next game against Liverpool. Arsenal's form has been great as they have not lost in the last 6 games in the Premier League and managed to win on 4 occasions, with Arsenal even keeping a clean sheet on 3 occasions, which used to be Arsenal's biggest problem in recent seasons. Arsenal is not playing any European Cups this year, and perhaps this is where Mikhael Arteta's charges have the advantage of being able to focus only on the Premier League.
