Both teams to score (-110)

I'm taking both teams to score (-110) in Arsenal vs. Liverpool because of recent form. Arsenal is still quite injured defensively, while Liverpool has been producing at a more consistent level than earlier in the season.

Defenders Riccardo Calafiori or Cristhian Mosquera are sidelined, which will limit rotation and positioning. However, the Gunners have potted 9 goals in their last three games, and their form at the Emirates has been superb all season.

Liverpool has been inconsistent this year, but has cashed the team total Over 1.5 in four of five games.

Score prediction: Arsenal 2, Liverpool 1

🙌 Best Arsenal vs. Liverpool goal-scorer pick

Martin Odegaard, Midfielder, Arsenal (+137 to score or assist) ⭐⭐⭐

Odegaard is a top pick to score or assist today, round back into form in recent games to become one of Arsenal's most-consistent threats offensively (again). He's cashed this prop in three straight games (goal, assist, assist). 

The beginning of this season was marred by injuries: he suffered a shoulder injury (4 games) in September, then a knee injury (11 games) shortly after his return. However, he's up to speed now, creating 12 chances over the last three games. 

He played only 21 meeting in August. He'll get close on to full minutes today.

🌤️ Arsenal vs. Liverpool weather

It's going to be a messy night for Arsenal vs. Liverpool at the Emirates. Forecasts for the N5 are calling for a mix of rain, with chances of precipitation ranging from 47% to 58%. 

While official forecasts are calling for "rain or snow", temperatures are going to range from 5-8 C, and that sounds a whole lot more like rain than snow. Looking like a wet one, either way.
