3 Things Arsenal Need To Do To Win Against Liverpool

Arsenal will be travelling to Anfield to play Liverpool on Saturday, and the visitors will be looking to maintain their position at the summit of the Premier League. Here are three things that Arsenal will need to do to beat a confident Liverpool side.

1. Dominate midfield

Arsenal have one of the best midfields in the Premier League, containing the likes of Mesut Ozil, Santi Cazorla, Jack Wilshere and others. They are capable of playing some wonderful passing football, and when in full flow, it is difficult to get the ball off them. Arsenal, even though they will be away from home, will have to hog the ball in order to ensure that Liverpool have less opportunity build up attacks.

Keeping possession of the ball will also mean that Liverpool will have to work that much harder, and in the absence of Lucas, Gerrard will find it difficult to keep up with the sharp passing and swift interplay between the Arsenal midfielders. It will also open up the opportunity for them to make late runs into the box, which has been one of the most effective goal-scoring tactic this season.
