Liverpool is coming to the game here with a better offense and a defense that has been very difficult to crack. The one saving grace for Arsenal that keeps the game from getting blown out in the game is the fact that the defense for Arsenal is okay, but still a little bit on the shaky side has a good goalie. The offense is missing the midfield help that can move the ball forward or as mentioned provide the support the defense is going to need to have. Look for the lack of mid-field support to be the difference in the game as Liverpool takes advantage of that lack of strong midfield play to bring home the win.
