FA Cup: Robbie Savage predicts scoreline for Arsenal vs Liverpool clash

Former Leicester City midfielder Robbie Savage has backed Liverpool to beat Arsenal 2-1 when both teams clash in the FA Cup this weekend.

Arsenal will on Sunday evening host Liverpool in the FA Cup third round clash at Emirates Stadium.

Both teams are doing well in Premier League title race so far this season.

Writing in his PlanetSport column, Savage said, “All the stats suggest this could be Liverpool’s game. Arsenal with only one win from their last eight against Liverpool.

“[They] have won three of their last four at the Emirates. I think if both teams can play their strongest available XI, I think Liverpool might just have the edge.”

He added, “I think in transition and on the counter-attack, [They] can exploit Arsenal.

“Therefore, I’m going with a Liverpool 2-1 win.”
