Jamie O’Hara makes early Arsenal vs Liverpool scoreline prediction and takes dig at Mikel Arteta’s gameplan

Arsenal prepare to host Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium in what promises to be one of the standout fixtures of the Premier League season so far.

To make matters worse, William Saliba’s sending-off at the Vitality Stadium means he is set to miss the game against Liverpool, which is a massive blow for the home team.

Mikel Arteta has a handfu𒐪l of issues to deal with, with Bukayo Saka and Ric𒁏cardo Calafiori adding to their injury woes.

The Arsenal boss confirmed that Saka is unlikely to play against Liverpool, while C𓆏alafiori is set to be assessed in the coming days.

O’Hara feels Liverpool and Arsenal will ca🍸ncel each other out on 🍃Sunday as he painted a rather grim picture of a game that offers so much promise.

“I think that’s going to be a stink-fest at the weekend. I think Arsenal are going to go and just park the bus,” said O’Ha𝐆ra on 💃.

Jason Cundy interjected and said he wouldn’t be 🐼surprised if the game ended 0-0, to which O’Hara si🐻mply quipped “That’s exactly what I am seeing.”

A lot at stake for both teams

Arsenal are already four points behind league leaders Liverpool, who have endured a stunning start to the new season under Arne Slot.

While the Rꦬeds have largely looked imperious under their new manager 🍨– barring their shock 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest – Arsenal have struggled a bit in recent weeks due to injuries and disciplinary issues.

Saliba will be a huge miss for Arsenal and the likes of Martin Odegaard, Jurrien Timber, Calafiori and Saka are injury doubts, presenting Liverpool💎 with a fantastic opportunity to go seven points clear of the Gunners so early in the season.
