Luis Díaz’s team is the leader of the English league with 45 points. With only one defeat in the 20 duels they have played, he is going through one of his best moments. With 18 days left, there is a long way to go and they will have to distance themselves from their rivals to secure the lead. They are stalked by Aston Villa who are second, three points behind the Reds.
Those led by Mikel Arteta have accumulated one victory against their rivals in the last five duels, so the statistics are in Liverpool’s favor by adding two victories. The two most recent matches ended in a draw, 2-2 on April 9, 2023 and 1-1 on December 23.
Arsenal, which has just been subjected to two consecutive defeats, will receive a team that will play without Mohamed Salah and Wataru Endo, who have already traveled to join their national teams to participate in the African and Asian Cups.
The visitors will look to extend their unbeaten streak of five games. Under Jürgen Klopp, they will have to prove to their detractors that they have what it takes to continue dominating. After Manchester United legend Gary Neville judged three Liverpool figures, including the Colombian, the team will have the opportunity to silence the critics.
As part of his opinions, he stated that he does not believe that the team will be able to continue in the race for the title. “Many of those players have left and returned to a transition period, like Cody Gakpo, Darwin Núñez and Luis Díaz. They are not yet polished, they are not ready. They are not at the peak of their careers like when you start making precise decisions,” he added despite highlighting the work that the German has shown in directing.
