Liverpool vs Arsenal Bet Builder Tips: Sunday, April, 9th
The Easter weekend Premier League fixtures conclude with one of the traditionally most eagerly-awaited clashes and we’ve got Liverpool vs Arsenal bet builder tips. Over the last few years, it has been an acid test for Liverpool’s title credentials. This year, the roles are reversed and it is Arsenal who travel to Merseyside as league leaders. Can Jurgen Klopp’s misfiring side derail the Gunners’ title challenge and breathe new life back into their own pursuit of Champions League qualification?

Liverpool vs Arsenal Preview
England, Premier League, Sunday, April 9th, 16:30 (UK)
Jurgen Klopp responded to his side’s 4-1 dismissal by Manchester City by making six changes for the midweek draw at Chelsea. Possibly with one eye on this clash in front of his own fans Virgil van Dijk, Mo Salah, Cody Gakpo, Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold were among the players rotated to the bench. The German head coach claimed the tepid stalemate was a “step in the right direction”. Coming hot on the heels of a game in which he confessed his side were lucky to “only” concede four you can take his point.
It has to be said the Stamford Bridge clean sheet was more by luck than judgement with the hosts missing a catalogue of chances. The Reds can not afford to be so open against the ruthless title favourites. Having lost eight and only won three of their 15 league road trips Liverpool will be happy to return to Anfield where their form is as impressive as usual.
Arsenal go into this clash with the luxury of a full week’s preparation time having had no midweek engagement. Although starting nervously last weekend the Gunners recorded a seventh straight league win in defeating Leeds 4-1. A win that restored their eight-point lead at the top of the Premier League table following Manchester City’s win by the same scoreline earlier in the day.
Liverpool vs Arsenal Stats & Facts
- This is the ninth time Arsenal have faced Liverpool in the Premier League while top of the league with the previous eight games producing a total of 33 goals at an average of 4.13 per game
- Arsenal have kept a clean sheet in just 20% of their Premier League games against Liverpool (12/61), their lowest ratio in the competition.
- Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard scored a hat-trick for Brighton away at Liverpool earlier this season. No player has ever scored at Anfield for two different away sides in the same Premier League season.
- Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp has won his last six home Premier League matches against Arsenal. The last manager to win seven consecutive home English top-flight games against Arsenal was John Nicholson between 1921 and 1928 with Sheffield United.
Liverpool vs Arsenal Best Bet
Given their well-documented toils this season, it is easy to forget that Liverpool have picked up an impressive 30 points from a possible 39 in the league on home soil. Suffering just one defeat. Jürgen Klopp’s side have won five of their last six EPL games at Anfield scoring 16 goals and conceding just two. This will be their first home game since they routed Manchester United 7-0 last month.
I can’t pass up an opportunity to side with the Reds in front of the Kop at odds of 2.75 despite the superb away form shown by Mikel Arteta’s side this term. The Gunners have collected the most wins, the most points, scored more goals and conceded the fewest when playing away than any other side in the English top flight. However, that is balanced by their terrible recent record when visiting Liverpool. They have lost each of their last six league visits to Anfield by an aggregate scoreline of 22-4, conceding at least three times in each. Arsenal haven’t won on this particular part of Merseyside since 2012, some 12 games ago. In that run, the home side have incredibly scored five on three occasions, four twice and three goals four times.
I am using bet365 for my Bet Builder selection. The Early Payout offer is an excellent feature to utilise. If Liverpool take a two-goal lead, that leg of the builder will be ticked off as a winner regardless of the final score. One of their only two home defeats this term came at the hands of Real Madrid – after Klopp’s men had taken an early 2-0 lead. If you had backed Liverpool to beat Los Blancos that leg would have won thanks to Early Payout, despite capitulating to a 5-2 loss.
Mohamed Salah scored the goal that triggered Early Payout that night and I am taking him to get on the scoresheet again here. The Egyptian has been involved in 105 Premier League goals in 105 appearances at Anfield for the Reds, plundering 74 goals and providing 31 assists. The 30-Year-Old has had direct involvement in seven goals in five appearances against Arsenal in front of the Kop. Scoring in four of those outings.
Those risk averse amongst you may wish to take advantage of the bet365 Bet Builder player props offerings. Instead of taking Salah to score you can choose his shots on target as an alternative. Thus taking control and using the flexibility of a sliding scale with increasing odds the higher you go. A tally of all main props are tracked on the Player Stats tab in the in-play menu of the game once it kicks off.
Adding over 2 goals in the match boosts the odds to a nice 6.00. The last nine league head-to-heads here have seen a total of 42 goals with an average of 4.67 with a minimum of four goals in all of them.
