Premier League Betting: Arsenal and Liverpool Fight for the Top

Millions football fans from all around the world will be looking at the Emirates Stadium today for an exciting battle in the Premier League's top, as home team Arsenal host Liverpool (12:45pm UK time). The previous meeting between the two this season at Anfield stadium ended a 2-2 draw.

Arsenal

Arsenal is positioned third in the Premier League table with 60 points, one point away from Manchester City and seven from leader Chelsea. The Gunners have 18 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses. They have won six games in a row in all competitions and are going strong.

For Arsenal, this game is about moving into the second spot and minimizing the gap with Chelsea – three points could inject them in all force into this season's title race. There are quite a few goalscorers in Arsenal – players like Oliver Giroud, Alexis Sanchez, Danny Welbeck and Aaron Ramsey are all good bets.

Liverpool

Positioned fifth in the table, Liverpool sits on 54 points composed of 16 wins, 6 draws and 8 losses. They've had a good run, winning five of their six last season games – the streak was ended when they faced Manchester United at home and lost 1-2 before the international break.

It's not an easy draw for Liverpool having faced Manchester United and now Arsenal in the next gameweek, and that will be rendered even harder with the absence of Steven Gerrard and Martin Skrtel. Despite positive statements, it's still not 100% sure that striker Daniel Sturridge will be at the front. If he will, look for him to try and make an impression together with Raheem Sterling who's among the team's top scorers.
