Arsenal over Liverpool for title because of defence

Carragher believes Arsenal are better placed to win the Premier League title over Klopp’s Liverpool due to their defence and the Gunners’ performances against the top teams.

Arsenal took the lead in a fast start at Anfield on Saturday Night Football through Gabriel’s header but a goal from Salah before half-time pulled them back.

This month, Mikel Arteta’s side have lost to Aston Villa and drawn with Liverpool – but Carragher says Arsenal were unlucky not to win those games which bodes well for their title charge.

“I think I would favour Arsenal over Liverpool,” said Carragher when asked about the two teams’ title hopes. “When I look at that strength of the two centre-backs [William Saliba and Gabriel] and Declan Rice in midfield, they look really solid.

“Coming to Anfield, it was tough for them but they really didn’t give away too many chances. It was the same at Aston Villa, they were unfortunate to lose that.

“And Liverpool and Aston Villa are the two best teams at home this season, the records tell you that. Even though Arsenal only picked up a point from those two games, I was more impressed with the performances than what they picked up points wise.”
