Top three Premier League matches this weekend

1. Arsenal v Liverpool (Saturday, 2nd November – 11:00PM IST | ESPN & ESPN HD)

A top of the table clash between two sides who many people thought were unlikely to challenge for the Premier League title. The Gunners sit at the top of the Premier League, but Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool side are just two points back.

There is no doubt this is the biggest game of the weekend and a massive game for both the sides. Arsenal have been brilliant, so far, but according to some they have had a favourable start to the campaign. Those critics have somewhat been proved right, after successive home defeats to Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund. A win on Saturday will confirm their title credentials, but if they lose their slight concerns could become bigger. On the other hand, the start Liverpool have had and the form they are in have left many claiming they are well in the race for the title. If they can win at the Emirates on Saturday, then they must be considered as genuine title contenders and they have the firepower to do so.

The kind of football both teams are playing, there is no doubt this one is going to be an entertaining game with both sides creating many chances and looking for the win. Last season, this corresponding fixture ended in a 2-2 draw and I won’t be surprised if this game ends with a similar scoreline.
