From the source
Liverpool face another big test on Sunday as they welcome Premier League champions Arsenal to Anfield. The Reds sit six points behind the Gunners going into the game, and the chance to narrow that gap to only three points comes with Andoni Iraola’s team in brilliant form.
Beating Chelsea on penalties in midweek means Liverpool have now won five matches in a row, and, according to former Reds winger Jermaine Pennant, the confidence the team should take from making such positive steps – along with some injury and squad issues for their opponents – makes them favourites to beat Arsenal.
Whereas Liverpool secured a morale-boosting win over Chelsea on Wednesday, Arsenal had surprisingly been knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Fleetwood the day before.
