'Liverpool fans won't like me saying this' - Gary Neville makes Jamie Carragher claim about Arsenal

Gary Neville believes Liverpool will come out fighting at Arsenal today - but the ex-Manchester United defender has thrown Jamie Carragher under the bus by revealing he thinks his former side will be 'blown away'.

The Reds go to the Emirates on the back of a convincing 2-0 Champions League win against Rangers in the week and Jurgen Klopp had decided to stick with the same 4-2-3-1 lineup that started that win. Domestic form has been far from promising, however, with Liverpool winning just two of their opening seven games to leave them 10th - 13 points behind Manchester City at the top and 11 short of today's hosts.

Klopp's side have had the better of the Gunners in recent years, winning all of the last four including a 2-0 win at the Emirates in March, but the tables have turned since the summer as Mikel Arteta's side go from strength to strength while Liverpool falter. But despite that slow start and glaring problems across the pitch, Neville believes the Reds will come out fighting and take the chance to prove their quality - although former Reds captain Carragher seems to feel less optimistic.
