The last day of August seems an incredibly early time to be talking about title deciders, but there looks a strong chance that the winners of Sunday’s game between Liverpool and Arsenal will gain a significant boost in their quest to win this season’s Premier League. There is plenty at stake, but this is a game that rarely disappoints and another thrilling clash looks likely judging by the way these 2 teams have started the season.

The pair have won both of their opening games, but it is Mikel Arteta’s Gunners who should be heading to Merseyside with a spring in their step following their 5-0 win over Leeds last weekend. Much of that confidence should be gleaned by the fact Liverpool conceded twice in the Community Shield against Crystal palace and then did the same again as they were bailed out by late goals against Bournemouth and Newcastle.

Bournemouth in particular enjoyed a strong period in the 2nd half on their trip to Anfield when Antoine Semenyo scored twice, and Arsenal will be delighted that big summer signing Viktor Gyokeres scored twice in the win over Leeds. While Liverpool have been continuously linked with Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, both Cody Gakpo and Hugo Ekiteke, captured from Eintracht Frankfurt, have both looked sharp up top and player-of-the-year Mo Salah is all the mark too. The quality of the forwards on display, even though Bukayo Saka will not be appearing for the visitors, points to some great entertainment, so we could see plenty of goals in this one.
