ARS vs LIV Dream11 Prediction
The Premier League’s Red & hot fixture of the Game Week 3 will be between Liverpool and Arsenal – the only teams with the ‘perfect’ start this season. The battle will be fierce with the top spot up for grabs. However, the strongly reinforced Gunners squad can put a halt to the home sides unbeaten run against them in last 8 matches in all competitions (Liverpool W4 D4).
Liverpool decimated team after team last season in their quest for silverware, including Unai Emery’s Arsenal during their last two encounters. Although the Gunners managed a draw during their first meeting last season despite an overwhelming possession advantage, their second match against Jürgen Klopp’s men was a one-sided rout, with the score 5-1 in Liverpool’s favor. Arsenal’s shots on target in this game were poor in number and quality, and thanks to their woeful defending, Liverpool ended up cruising to victory.
Arsenal has made efforts to improve their backline with the signing of David Luiz. With attack-minded signings like Nicolas Pépé and Dani Ceballos joining their ranks, they have had a resurgent season so far. Liverpool, however, have primarily been passive in the transfer market this year and have had virtually no changes made to their Champions League-winning first team from last season.

Dream 11 Tips and Tricks for Today’s EPL Match: Liverpool vs Arsenal
Goalkeeper: Bernd Leno has had two excellent games in which he has managed to keep one clean sheet in the opening game away from home at Newcastle. His fantasy league form can be rated as 3.3
Defenders: Despite Liverpool’s worrisome lack of clean sheets, the Virjil Van Dijk is still the most selected player in the Fantasy Leagues. The Dutch centre-back’s imposing presence and aerial prowess make him a threat anywhere on the pitch. Virjil opened his account in the last game. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Ainsley Maitland-Niles both have successfully assisted goals for their respective sides. Joel Matip won some crucial contests against Norwich in their 1st Home game.
Midfielders: Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah both joint winners of the Golden Boot last season have not only opened their scores in the first two games but also have assisted a goal each. Jordan Henderson and James Milner collectively have completed 120 passes and have had one shot on target. Dani Ceballos has successfully completed 98 passes and assisted two goals in his first two appearances of the English Premier League.
Forward: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has completed 52 passes and has scored in both the first two games for his side. With Alisson not available, he will be a perfect striker.
Firmino is another great option to choose from. The Brazilian has scored eight Premier League goals against Arsenal, including a hat-trick the last time the two teams met. Only Robbie Fowler has a better record for Liverpool against the Gunners, with nine to his name. Except Liverpool’s No.9 to find the back of the net, match or surpass the standing record, and reward managers with a lot of points.

Past Meetings
Liverpool in their last game on the 29th of December 2019 demolished the Gunners with a 5-1 score line. Maitland-Niles, who had scored his first goal of the career for Arsenal, was able to maintain the lead only for the next three minutes. Firmino equalised in the 14th minute and went on to score a hat trick; Liverpool were rampant as Mane and Salah also successfully netted the ball. Even though the visitors enjoyed a majority of 52.1% possession, they could manage only two shots on target whereas Liverpool had a massive 10 shots on target.
