Liverpool

Following the results of the last season of the English Premier League, Liverpool won the title of national champion ahead of schedule and did it for the 19th time. In 38 rounds, the Reds managed to get 32 ??victories and finished three fights with the world, which brought 99 points. The team's attack hit the gates of the opponents 85 times, while the defense line played excellently.

The Lersisides traditionally started the new football season of England with a duel for the Super Cup, in which they lost to today's opponent in a penalty shootout (1:2).

The start of the new championship for Jurgen Klopp's charges turned out to be successful. Hosts beat Leeds (4:3) and Chelsea (2:0) in the Premier League. In the 1/16 finals of the League Cup, The Reds left no chances for Lincoln (7:2).

Among the champion's newcomers, one cannot fail to note the transfer from Bayern Munich to Thiago for 30 million euros and Diogo Jota from Wolverhampton (44.7 million).

Matip, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Henderson and Milner will not be able to take part in today's game.

Arsenal

The 13-time champion and 14-time FA Cup winner managed to take only eighth position last season. The capital club recorded 14 wins and draws each, which brought 56 ??points. That's 43 points less than the champion. The Gunners also have more modest performance in the attack line, which hit the opponents' goal 56 times.

Arsenal kicked off the new football season with a Super Cup win, after which they have never been defeated. In the 2020/21 Premier League, Mikel Arteta's charges defeated Fulham (3:0) and West Ham (2:1), which brought the maximum result at the start of the Premier League tournament. In the League Cup, the “red-whites” made it to the 1/8 finals, beating Leicester away (2:0), for which we made a forecast.

Of the newcomers, one cannot fail to note the strengthening of the defense line, where Gabriel from Lille came for 26 million and Pablo Marie from Flamengo (8.0 million).

In the infirmary of the team are Martinelli, Mustafi, Smith Row, Chambers, Soares and Tierney. The exit of Socrates is in question.
