Liverpool Set to Face Arsenal at Anfield
The Premier League champions Liverpool are set to host their title rivals Arsenal at Anfield this Sunday afternoon.
Recently, the Reds clinched their second Premier League title against north London foes, defeating Tottenham Hotspur 5-1 to secure the top position. Arsenal, who were in contention for the title for much of the season, will pay Liverpool a guard of honour on Merseyside.
After a disappointing 3-1 loss to Chelsea in their last outing, Liverpool will look to bounce back on Sunday. Although the prior result does not affect them greatly, they are eager to add to Arsenal’s woes.
Arsenal experienced another setback by missing the Champions League final in midweek, suffering defeat against Paris Saint-Germain. This marks another season without silverware for Mikel Arteta’s team, who are still striving to secure a spot in Europe’s top competition for next season.
As they face Liverpool, Arsenal will aim to restore pride while also working to secure a place in the Premier League’s top five to avoid unnecessary pressure in the final stretch of the season.
