Why Bet on Arsenal?

Arsenal came very close to becoming Premier League champions again after several years but fell two points behind Manchester City. That’s two consecutive runner-up finishes, so the mission is to be champion.

It was already a great team, and they decided to reinforce with defender Riccardo Calafiori, who comes from Bologna. No doubt it will be a very tough competition to win a place in the starting lineup as there are William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes, Jakub Kiwior, and we can also count as reinforcement Jurrien Timber, who arrived last season and got injured in the first matchday, missing the entire campaign. The Italian has just joined the team, and it remains to be seen if he will play his first minutes this Wednesday.

Likewise, David Raya, who was on loan, was acquired by the Gunners, and it remains to be seen if Kieran Tierney and Oleksandr Zinchenko continue, as with the high number of defenders, the two full-backs are thinking of moving on.

They have played two games this pre-season, in the first they drew 1-1 with Bournemouth and then beat them 5-4 on penalties, while in the second they defeated Manchester United 2-1. Fabio Vieira, Gabriel Jesus, and Gabriel Martinelli have been the scorers of the tour.

Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, Aaron Ramsdale, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Raya, Tierney, and Saliba are still on vacation after being with their national teams in continental tournaments.

Why Bet on Liverpool?

Liverpool has been outclassed in recent years by Arsenal and Manchester City and wants to be champions again. Now they are in the new era of Dutchman Arne Slot, following the departure of Jurgen Klopp at the end of last season.

Slot comes from managing Feyenoord in his country, where he was runner-up last year and Eredivisie champion the year before. He will have his first challenge outside the Netherlands at a big club like Liverpool, so there is a lot of expectation of what he can do.

In terms of reinforcements, no one has arrived at the club, and on the contrary, Thiago Alcantara and Joel Matip left. There is no doubt that the loss of the Spaniard is important, although it is also true that due to injuries he was not able to play much. Thiago decided to retire for that very reason.

In the first preseason match, they defeated Real Betis by 1-0 with a goal by the Hungarian Dominik Szoboszlai. The Reds have many players who are still on vacation after playing the Euro and Copa América with their national teams, such is the case of Darwin Núñez (Uruguay), Luis Díaz (Colombia), Virgil Van Dijk, Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch (Netherlands), Diogo Jota (Portugal), Alexis Mac Allister (Argentina), Trent Alexander Arnold and Joe Gomez (England), Andrew Robertson (Scotland), Ibrahima Konaté (France) and Alisson (Brazil).

Final Betting Analysis: Arsenal vs. Liverpool

The last time these two teams met was on February 4 this year in the Premier League and Arsenal won 3-1 with goals from Saka, Martinelli, and Leandro Trossard.

Despite the numerous casualties in both teams, it will always be a good game when Arsenal and Liverpool face each other. There is no doubt that the Gunners have a much bigger squad and have fewer absentees, so we believe they will take the victory.
