• Arsenal vs Liverpool Prediction: Premier League Match on 04.02.2024

Liverpool leads the way

Liverpool started the week on top of the league with their stats for the season so far showing 14 wins, six draws and just one defeat with 47 goals scored and 18 conceded. Their tally of 48 points places them above Manchester City with last season’s champions sitting five points off the pace but with a game in hand. Arsenal and Aston Villa are third and fourth with both the Gunners and Villans also on 43 points.

Liverpool hit the front with a long unbeaten run which includes a hattrick of wins in their last three Premier League games. Jurgen Klopp’s men were last seen in action beating Norwich City 5-2 at Anfield in the FA Cup Fourth Round on Sunday with their most recent Premier League outing resulting in a 4-0 away win over Bournemouth. January was a positive month for the home team and they’re aiming to keep the wins coming thick and fast.

Chelsea three and easy

Like their opponents and hosts, Chelsea has won their last three Premier League games as the Blues from Stamford Bridge continue to climb the ladder following a slow start. Last season was a dreadful campaign for big-spending Chelsea and this year didn’t start much better with the team stuck in midtable. But they appear to have turned a corner and will have their sights set on a European finish this spring.

Chelsea arrives at Anfield with their stats for the season showing nine wins, four draws and eight defeats with 35 goals scored and 31 conceded. Their 31 points tally leaves Chelsea in ninth, two points better than a Newcastle United side in tenth that has lost its last four. The visitors are just four points behind West Ham United and a spot in the top six. Will they grab a stunning win on Merseyside?

Liverpool vs Chelsea prediction

When previewing this game, you may wish to place your trust in the stats and there’s a strong line of form to follow. Midweek will be the second match involving these sides this season with the previous game ending in a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge back in August. Will we see a repeat performance on Wednesday?

If you enjoy following the stats we have another that may catch your attention. Each of the last seven renewals of this fixture has ended in a draw and that’s quite remarkable. The last Liverpool and Chelsea game to produce a winner was a 1-0 for Chelsea at Anfield in March 2021. Four of the last five have ended goalless.
