Liverpool head to North London this weekend to face Arsenal in the Premier League. Here are five reasons the Reds will humiliate the Gunners.

Jurgen Klopp’s undefeated Liverpool side face a top four matchup this weekend at they travel to the Emirates to take on Arsenal in the late Premier League kick off on Saturday.

The Reds have eight wins and two draws – against Man City and Chelsea – in their first ten games and are on course for a shot at the Premier League title.

Arsenal have been no slouches themselves. A seven game win streak has taken them to fourth place, above the consensus expectations for this transitioning side. New manager Unai Emery has been quick to implement his system and has found good results against the sides in the bottom half of the table.

It could be easy to dismiss Arsenal’s record – having lost to Chelsea and Man City – as they have played relatively few tough fixtures and struggled in the ones they have played. But the late Arsene Wenger era Gunners often dropped points to the lower sides.

I’m sure most Arsenal fans would have jumped at the chance of being in the top four, above Spurs and Manchester United when November rolled round.

But Saturday is not simply another test for the North Londoners. This is perhaps the most balanced Liverpool side of the Premier League era. Certainly it is their best start to a season.

There is plenty to think that Arsenal won’t just lose on Saturday; they will be humiliated. Here are five reasons we think Liverpool crush Arsenal this weekend.
