Liverpool vs. Arsenal is the biggest fixture this weekend as far as European football is concerned. All eyes will be on whether Arsenal can break their bad luck playing at Anfield, win, and continue writing their beautiful story this season, or if Liverpool will rise to the occasion and manage to get a point or more from Arsenal at home.
Ex-Arsenal star Sol Campbell has spoken about that game; he hasn’t directly said Arsenal are winning it, but what he has insinuated is that Arsenal must win if they want to ensure the Premier League title.
Campbell had much to say about Arsenal; he even touched on why Arsenal have been on form this season and how Guardiola is scared of what Arteta and his boys will do this season.
“The progress they have made in 12 months—after missing out on a top four place a year ago—has been the story of the season,” he told the Sun.
“A combination of outstanding player recruitment, a brilliant start to the season—with five wins in a row—and then reeling off their last seven Prem wins on the spin.
“Even Pep Guardiola has admitted he would rather be in Arsenal’s position right now because it’s the Gunners’ title to lose.
“I do believe that if they win at Liverpool tomorrow, it would take something absolutely catastrophic for Arsenal not to be lifting the Premier League trophy at the end of next month.”
A lot of predictions have been made about Arsenal going to Anfield, and Gooners will be hoping Saka and co. show how hungry they are for the league title. Not only Guardiola and his boys will be watching, but the entire world will be watching as well.
COYG!

I for one am very nervous about today!! If we win what a huge victory it will be and one huge step towards the Premier League title. If we lose then its in City’s hand as we go to the Etihad in a few weeks.
Biggest game of the season today and havnt won in the league at Anfield since 2012. This has the making to be a fantastic game of football 👏
It’s still in our hands. Even if we lose today. A draw would be good enough at Liverpool and at City too. Although we can still win at both. Have faith. COYG!!
My sentiments exactly. Wouldn’t be the best way to win it but we could still lose today, at Etihad, win the rest and still lift the trophy. Ideally though the points cushion should be maintained or extended
But Sol Campbell 2.0 is injured and has to be replaced by Holding today
Is it confirmed??
I don’t know..
I don’t see him in the training session photos
Let’s hope that Salah doesn’t suddenly recapture his lost form, or Zinchenko’s in for a busy afternoon.
What has been in my mind since I heard Gabriel Maghalaes say what Gabriel Jesus told him when he first signed for Arsenal at the beginning of this season: “When he came to Arsenal, on the first day, he looked at me and said: ‘if everyone works together, we can win this league’.”
100% spot on from an experienced Premier League winner. Our young team has shown an immense strength of unity so far this season and deserve to be where we are. Today, we face Liverpool at Anfield, 11 v 11, let’s go! We can only beat who is in front of us and today it’s Liverpool’s turn. There is not a single Liverpool player in today’s form, that would get into our starting 11, not even Salah on Van Dijk. Even if Saliba is out, Holding has deputised with some commanding performances that proves we got what it takes, together, to get us over the line and win this league. Winning today doesn’t mean we win the league, it’s just another step in the right direction and it’s all these small steps our young team has been taking, together, that make me so proud to be an Arsenal fan. No matter what happens this season, I will be proud of our team. For me, we have punched way above our weight and it all boils down to one thing, we are playing for each other, as a team. I would like to thank Arteta/Edu for the winning experience bought into the squad by our signings of Jesus, Zinchenko and Jorginho, these signing have turned out to be genius and exactly what our young squad needed to instill that robust winning mentality in games which we would have drawn or lost last season. Today it’s Liverpool’s turn to experience that mentality, we are not the same Arsenal today that lost 4-0 last time at Anfield, we are a new beast and no matter what pitch we are on, we are the big dog and any football pitch we play on, is our back yard. Today we show the world, we don’t fear no team, no stadium, no defence, no attack, we fear no one of today or yesteryear, big club or small club or anyone. We are Arsenal and we will win the league this season, by “playing together” [G. Jesus]. Come on Arsenal ❤️🤍
Key thing is don’t loose the game a point is not the end of the world my biggest concern is if holding plays think he could get destroyed by the Liverpool front line and it could cost us dearly unfortunately with injuries to Tommy and Saliba we have no other options we got away with it last 2 games against average teams but won’t get away with it against this Liverpool forward line who will prob play the games of there lives at anfield!
City have really been asking us questions and so far we have been excellent in giving the right answers. Today we gonna give an emphatic answer as well. Not an easy game, I just feel we are hungrier, and it’s about time we won at anfield. We got this
Winning today is about so much more than just 3 points. It is the biggest game this club has seen in almost 2 decades because of we win at Anfield today I think we win the league.
Today’s win decide our EPL trophy. Why so? Its give us the 3 important point we needed first of all. That 3 point, give we us freedom and confidence to win rest of the match. Even visiting etihad stadium like a icing on the cake, if we win. But if we lose today, everything I said above will be opposite.
I feel more comfortable that we will win at Citeh…..shit scared of this match…….win we will win the league….we are a different team, hungrier and more together as a team…….arsenal 2-pool 1
