On August 24th, Liverpool and Arsenal, the only two teams with 100% winning records, will clash at Anfield in a highly anticipated match. The Reds, fresh from their Super Cup victory over Chelsea, will be looking to maintain their perfect start to the season.

Liverpool's defense has been a cause for concern, particularly with Trent Alexander-Arnold's mistakes since the season began. Jurgen Klopp is yet to decide on a preferred partner for Virgil van Dijk, with both Joel Matip and Joe Gomez vying for the spot.

Meanwhile, Arsenal has started the season on a high note, winning their opening two league games for the first time in ten years. However, their win over Burnley was a nervy affair, with Pierre Emerick Aubameyang scoring the winning goal.

Historically, Liverpool holds the upper hand, having won 87 of the previous fixtures between the two sides. Arsenal, on the other hand, has struggled at Anfield, with their last win dating back to 2012.

With both teams having defensive issues, this match could be a high-scoring affair. However, it's difficult to see Arsenal coming out on top.

Tip: Liverpool to win and over 2.5 goals at 2.30 with 22Bet.
