The match has ended, you can view football predictions for today and football predictions for tomorrow.
After both sides booked a fourth-round EFL Cup showdown next week with contrasting midweek victories, Premier League champions Liverpool host Arsenal on Monday evening.
The pair have won their first two top-flight games in 2020-21, but for at least one of them, that will come to an end to finish September. The Reds were impressive en route to a 2-0 away win over Chelsea last weekend, while Mikel Arteta's men edged out a 2-1 victory against West Ham.
Liverpool will seek revenge after successive H2H defeats for the first time since 2012, against an Arsenal side gradually improving under the Spaniard's guidance.
Will either side emerge victorious here, or are we destined for a closely-contested draw? Read my match preview, for the correct score predictions and best betting tips ahead of this fixture.
Liverpool vs Arsenal Betting Tips
Arsenal were 2-0 winners away to Leicester on Wednesday, for the first time since September 2015. That's a remarkable statistic and one that speaks volumes as they target a drastic improvement in their results away from home under Arteta going forward.
Liverpool cruised to a 7-2 win over Lincoln 24 hours later, with both Curtis Jones and Takumi Minamino scoring braces during an emphatic third-round cup victory.
These two sides will clash twice in three days next week, but the first is arguably more important from Arsenal's perspective. They've struggled for results against top opposition and given their progress under Arteta, what better way to test themselves than away to the defending champs?
Sadio Mane will be buzzing after a match-winning brace at Chelsea, while Roberto Firmino has scored just one top-flight goal in his last 17 games. He loves playing Arsenal...
Liverpool vs Arsenal Correct Score Predictions
Perhaps this represents the best time for Arsenal's trip to Anfield - an early-season clash against a side with their vulnerabilities and can be punished. With better composure when defending inside the area, Leeds would have earned a result on MD1. Instead, they gave away two penalties and were duly punished by Mohamed Salah.
The Gunners cannot afford to replicate that, nor start sluggishly on Merseyside here. If they do, it could be a long evening for Arteta's side - who are improving but not yet on top form.
