Battle Tonight At The Emirates: Arsenal V Liverpool. by dabblesports(m): 3:07pm On Dec 22, 2017 |
[b] Liverpool welcomes back their midfielder Emre Can who was on suspension, but Daniel Sturridge and defender Joel Matip whose fitness are not yet ascertained are doubts for the game against the Gunners. Alberto Moreno is still sidelined by an ankle problem. At the other end, Arsenal forward Olivier Giroud will miss Friday’s match and probably the games lined up during the festive period due to a hamstring injury. Another player in the Gunner’s fold Francis Coquelin who limped off in their win against West Ham in the League Cup could be fit for tonight’s game and there are strong signals of Shkodran Mustafi featuring tonight for Arsenal. Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger spoke on his side’s 4-0 defeat to Liverpool earlier this season. "When you have such a long career as I have, you have some defeats unfortunately that hurt you for the rest of your life. "When you can put things right, do it. So let's focus on what is in front of us and turn up on Friday night with a completely different performance. "The motivation is there. This squad has a good mentality and it is about us, to make sure we are on top of our game. We must play with pace and a determined attitude." Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp had this to say. "I don't know if there will be a lot of goals again, but we go there to perform and to get as much as we can. We know that's difficult but in this moment I feel it is possible. "Arsenal are a complete football team, they are able to do everything, switch and change styles. Against us it happened that they played a lot of long balls to Giroud. He cannot play (Friday) so that will mean they will change a few things maybe. "But they are able to create; they will have a strong side whoever will play. It means a lot of good, good footballers on the pitch." It’s really going to be a pulsating encounter between the fourth placed Liverpool on the Premier League table against another skillful and attacking-minded Arsenal. Just a point separates the two sides and a win for Arsenal at the Emirates tonight will see them climb above Liverpool on the standing.[/b] dabbsports.com
