A Sterling Effort
Just named Europe's 'Golden Boy' the converted striker will be confident after scoring twice in midweek.
Skybet are offering money back on selected markets if both teams score and we’d be foolhardy not to take advantage.
For all their respective troubles, it would be a surprise if either was shutout. Arsenal have found the net in 15 out of 16 Premier League matches in 2014-15 while Liverpool may have found a new attacking solution after the midweek 3-1 victory at Bournemouth.
The key man in the new formation is Raheem Sterling who will continue in a striker’s role against the Gunners after bagging a brace against the Cherries. In the absence of Daniel Sturridge, Brendan Rodgers has made the bold move to push the winger into a more central area.
The decision initially appeared to backfire against United last weekend when the England star squandered a series of chances at Old Trafford. But the fact is he was getting opportunities and he started taking them in the Capital One Cup.
The Arsenal back four rarely look comfortable against raw pace and trickery and they have conceded at least twice in half their top flight away games so far.
Sterling has just been named Europe’s ‘Golden Boy’ for 2014 - an award chosen by journalists across the continent for the best player under the age of 21 in a top flight league. He will therefore be full of confidence and he looks a bargain at 7/1 in the first goalscorer market.
