137 Kevin Campbell has backed Arsenal to beat Liverpool in the FA Cup third round on Sunday.
The Gunners have endured a tough patch of form in recent weeks, having picked up just one point from their last three Premier League games.
Mikel Arteta’s men led the way on Christmas Day but have since slipped down to fourth, with Liverpool now sitting top of the table.
Both Arteta and Jurgen Klopp have lifted the FA Cup in recent years, with Arsenal winning the competition in 2020 and Liverpool lifting the trophy in 2022.
Of course, both will be keen to replicate that success this term, as well as competing for the title.
And Kevin Campbell has backed Arsenal to run out 2-1 winners when the two sides meet at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
Campbell predicts Arsenal vs Liverpool result
Speaking on Highbury Squad, the former Arsenal man was asked for his prediction for Sunday’s game.
He responded: “I think Arsenal win the game 2-1. I think it’s time for us to bounce back.
“We can bounce back in this one, for sure.”
Liverpool head into Sunday’s clash in fine form, having won three of their last four games in all competitions.
Klopp’s side were held to a 1-1 draw against Arsenal at Anfield just before Christmas though and we’re expecting another close game this weekend.
Arteta will be desperate to get back to winning ways after losing two league games on the bounce for the first time this season.
It would be a surprise to see either manager name a weakened side. But Klopp will have to worry about a League Cup semi-final against Fulham next Wednesday too.
In our view, Arsenal will bounce back with a narrow over the Reds on Sunday and they should be boosted by the home advantage.
