Arsenal vs Liverpool, Premier League preview: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, h2h, team news

Arsenal host Liverpool at the Emirates tonight with the Premier League champions still chasing down a record points haul.

The Gunners' hopes of a late Champions League push were all but ended on Sunday after defeat to Tottenham but the Gunners remain determined to secure Europa League qualification.

Mikel Arteta may have one eye on Saturday's FA Cup semi-final showdown with Manchester City, however.

Date, time and venue

Arsenal vs Liverpool is scheduled for a 8:15pm BST kick-off tonight.

The match will be behind closed doors at Emirates with no fans due to be present due to government guidelines regarding coronavirus.

TV channel: Arsenal vs Liverpool will be shown live on Sky Sports' Premier League and Main Event channels and is available via Now TV with a day pass for £9.99, or a three-month pass on offer for £25.

Prediction: Arsenal 1-2 Liverpool

Liverpool need a win to keep their hopes of surpassing Manchester City's 100-point tally - and there has usually been a guarantee of goals when these two meet.

But with Arteta suggesting he may have to ring in changes, Liverpool may have the edge on the night.

This will be the 229th meeting between these two sides - Liverpool have won 89 of those to Arsenal's 78 with 61 draws over the years.

The Gunners have to go back to April 2015 for their last win.
