"If Arsenal win...". Paul Merson makes admission about the Gunners and predicts the game vs Liverpool

Liverpool prepare to host Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday, April 9.

The Reds are currently 8th in the league table as they have been struggling with poor results. Meanwhile, the Gunners lead the table with eight points ahead of second placed Manchester City, who have one game in hand.

Ahead of the game, Paul Merson has stated his prediction on Sportskeeda. According to Merson, Arsenal will celebrate 2-1 victory.

"This game is a worry for Arsenal. Liverpool did not play Salah, Van Dijk, Robertson, or Alexander-Arnold against Chelsea. Jurgen Klopp could be saving these players for Arsenal. I'd be shocked if they don't play this game. It seems like the Arsenal game at home is more important to Jurgen Klopp, and that would worry me as an Arsenal fan," wrote Merson.

"If Arsenal win this game, I think they win the Premier League. They still have a game against an excellent Newcastle side, but Arsenal won't have to beat them if they can get the better of Liverpool. If they win this game, they would have to have a major meltdown to lose the title race.

"Jurgen Klopp wants his Liverpool side to play a certain way, and his team doesn't have the legs to pull it off at the moment. It wasn't too long ago that Liverpool were smashing Manchester United at home. This is going to be a difficult game for Arsenal, and a victory here would seal the Premier League title for me."
