The first legs of the Carabao Cup semi-finals kick-off this week evening with Arsenal hosting Liverpool at the Emirates on Thursday.
Mikel Arteta and Jurgen Klopp will face-off yet again this season with a crucial tie in the last four of the cup as both clubs are so close to another trophy.
Mikel Arteta and Jurgen Klopp both missed their sides games last weekend after positive Covid-19 tests
BETFAIR – MONEY BACK AS CASH UP TO £50*
Liverpool are well ahead of Arsenal in the table currently by seven points but going into cup ties that means very little with everything at stake.
That being said, Liverpool haven’t won in their last three league games drawing 2-2 to both Tottenham and Chelsea either side of their loss to Leicester City.
They will be hoping to out that bad form behind them with a win over the Gunners but are without key players who have gone on international duty at AFCON.
Arsenal are without Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang too but were without him for the end of December too where they still scored five over Norwich City.
This is also the 13th different League Cup tie between Arsenal and Liverpool, with each side winning/progressing six times each in the previous 12. It’s the most played fixture in the history of the competition.
We are backing: Arsenal to win under 2.5 goals at 3.83/1 on Betfair.
