Liverpool vs Arsenal Tips

Our Tip Methodology

At FootballTips, every prediction is shaped by a mix of data-driven analysis and informed football insight. Our contributors consider a wide range of factors before recommending a bet – from recent form and head-to-head records to tactical matchups, team news, and underlying stats.

We look for patterns in goal trends, home and away splits, player performance, and betting market movement to identify where the value lies. We don’t just tip favourites – we aim to find selections that offer a genuine edge. Whether it’s a goalscorer angle, a BTTS trend, or a high-priced underdog, each tip is backed by research and reasoning to help you bet smarter.

Why We’re Backing Viktor Gyokeres First Goalscorer @ 11/2 with AK Bets

  • Viktor Gyokeres opened his Arsenal account with two goals against Leeds and the big-money summer signing has immediately been handed penalty taking duty.
  • Liverpool have conceded four goals in their opening two top-flight matches and the strength and direct running of Gyokeres could be a key weapon in the Gunners’ attack. 

Why We’re Backing 2-2 Correct Score @ 12/1 with Bet365

  • The last two matches between Liverpool and Arsenal have finished in 2-2 draws and it could be a hat-trick on Sunday.
  • The Reds have started the season with 4-2 and 3-2 victories over Bournemouth and Newcastle, while the Gunners fired five goals past Leeds last weekend.
  • Mikel Arteta could field a new-look front three at Anfield with Eberechi Eze, Viktor Gyokeres and Noni Madueke poised for starts with Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka injured.
  • Liverpool have a whole host of attacking talent at their disposal, but Arne Slot’s men do look vulnerable defensively. A ding-dong battle looks likely at Anfield and a 2-2 scoreline could land for the third time on the bounce.

Arsenal Form/Stats

  • Arsenal have lost only one of their last seven games against Liverpool.

Player to Watch

Eberechi Eze could be in line for his Arsenal debut at Anfield following his big-money move from Crystal Palace. With Havertz and Saka injured, and Martin Odegaard struggling for fitness, Arteta may be forced to unleash his new signing.

The England international scored 14 goals for Palace last term and he could have an impact at Anfield on Sunday.
