Expected XI: Alisson, Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Jones, Salah, Diaz, and Gakpo
Key Players
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)
Bukayo Saka has been a real pleasure to watch for Arsenal this season, and in total, he has produced 10 assists and provided six goals in the Premier League, making him influential on the team’s attacking end, creatively sparking many goal opportunities, often from key passes leading to goals. Saka’s ability to impact a game from the right wing continues to be a true asset as Arsenal.
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
On Liverpool’s end, Mohamed Salah has been the glue for their style of play until now, still showing out strong with 28 goals and 18 assists to lead the Premier League since. With 46 goal involvement (G/A), he has been a driving force to help Liverpool claim their 20th English league title, beating Manchester United. Salah’s regular production this season helped him earn the Football Writers’ Association Men’s Player of the Year award for the 3rd time, earning nearly 90 percent of the votes.
Predictions
Going and beating Liverpool will take a hell of a lot of courage, but Arsenal can do it. If Liverpool, it won’t matter to them as much as Arsenal, because for Arsenal, a UCL spot awaits. When we look at the previous records at Anfield, Liverpool has an upper hand.
