If Arsenal comes away with three points this Monday, Mikel Arteta will become the first Arsenal manager to win his first match at Liverpool since Tom Whitaker in 1947.

Both sides are on a good run of form coming into this game, with two wins from two, both sides have an average goal per game of 3.0 and 2.5 respectively, accounting for this season’s results in the Premier League.

It has been 28 days since both these sides played out a 1-1 draw in the charity shield, and 72 days since Arsenal‘s landmark victory against the Premier League champions at the Emirates Stadium. Since that time, I’m certain both managers will believe their sides have improved in every area of the team.

Although we are not sure when we expect new Signing Diojo Jota will make his debut for the Reds, It’s likely, we will see Thiago Alcántara make an appearance either from the bench or from the start. Having impressed on his cameo against Chelsea last weekend, the 29-year-old looks a ready-made Red who can meet the demands of Jürgen Klopp’s midfield.

The tactical analysis below looks at the key tactics and players that will feature in this fixture.
The analysis also examines the strengths and weaknesses of both sides based on recent performances and previous head-to-heads.

Likely lineups
The hosts will certainly line up in their signature 4-3-3. In the attacking phase, we can expect Liverpool to commit both full-backs, and keep short passing distances in the final third to penetrate at pace. While having the pacey front three made up of a false-9 and two inverted forwards, that can change the point of attack and drive at goal to create chances.

The Gunners are likely to play a 3-4-3, morphing into a 5-4-1 in the defensive phase. Going forward the North Londoners will look to be quick on the counter and may also use inverted wide forwards who can cut in. In their last League meeting, Liverpool bested Arsenal in possession 70% to 30%, meaning Arsenal hade to absorb a lot of Liverpool’s attack very deep in their 5-4-1 as they looked to play on the break to get success.
