Gary Neville shares his predictions for the upcoming match between Liverpool and Arsenal on Sunday…

Gary Neville discusses his expectations for the winner in the Liverpool-Arsenal matchup scheduled for Sunday.

Liverpool is set to visit the Emirates Stadium for what is expected to be a captivating tactical showdown in the Premier League.

Currently, the Reds hold a four-point advantage over their rivals and aim to maintain their impressive start to the season under manager Arne Slot.

With seven victories and just one defeat in their first eight Premier League matches, Slot has effectively established his presence at Anfield in a short period.

Conversely, Arsenal has faced challenges recently due to injuries and must secure a favorable outcome to remain competitive in the title race.

As the match approaches, Gary Neville has made a noteworthy prediction…

Gary Neville anticipates an Arsenal victory over Liverpool.

The Gunners are dealing with injuries to key players such as Martin Odegaard, Takahiro Tomiyasu, and Kieran Tierney, while William Saliba is suspended following a red card received against Bournemouth.

Additionally, Jurrien Timber and Riccardo Calafiori are racing against time to regain fitness, leaving Arsenal with several issues to resolve before the match.

Neville believes that Liverpool will not fare well at the Emirates, predicting that Slot will experience his first away defeat of the season.

“This is the significant match, the one filled with emotion! I refuse to accept a 0-0 outcome; I don’t want that,” Neville stated on Stick to Football.

“I can’t bear to watch a 0-0 draw on a Sunday! A 1-1 or 2-2 result is acceptable, but I detest 0-0. I need to see a winner or at least some goals. My prediction is Arsenal 2-1.”

In their recent encounters, Liverpool faced Arsenal last season in a match that ended 3-1 in favor of the Gunners, during which Ibrahima Konate received a red card.

However, prior to that match, Liverpool had dominated the rivalry with an impressive record of:

Six victories

Four draws

One defeat

22 goals scored

Eight goals conceded

A victory for Liverpool could extend their lead over Arsenal to seven points, and with the Gunners dealing with injury issues, Slot has a prime opportunity to achieve a significant away win.
