EPL 2018-19: Top 5 clashes to look out for in the festive period

#5 Liverpool vs Arsenal - 29th December

Who will triumph in the battle of the attacking units?

Another fixture that always provides entertainment and yields goals. These are two teams that enjoy attacking and have pacy attacking units that are bound to thrill their fans. This fixture has always remained one of the most watchable for the neutrals. They played out a 1-1 draw when they faced off at the Emirates Stadium earlier this year.

With games coming thick and fast it will be important for both these sides to come out victorious, with Liverpool chasing leaders Manchester City and the Gunners chasing city-rivals Tottenham and Chelsea in the Top 4 race.

When these two sides met during the festive period last season, they played out an entertaining 3-3 draw in a pulsating encounter. We could see a similarly high scoring fixture if the likes of Mohamed Salah, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mesut Ozil, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Alexandre Lacazette are in full flow.

Arsenal haven't beaten Liverpool in the last seven clashes between the two sides and have drawn two and lost three in their last five visits to Anfield. This indicates that the Reds will have the advantage over the Gunners. This is most definitely a must-win game for Liverpool before they travel to Etihad Stadium to face Manchester City in their first fixture of the new year.
