Arsenal hero Paul Merson has backed his old side to come out on top in today's crucial Premier League clash against Liverpool.
The north London outfit currently sit five points clear at the top of the table with just nine games to go as second-placed Manchester City continue to keep the pressure on, defeating Southampton 4-1 yesterday. April presents a tough period for the Gunners and next up is a game against Jurgen Klopp and co at Anfield, a ground they haven't secured a league victory at since 2012.
But that hasn't stopped Merson from predicting Mikel Arteta's side to clinch all three points against the Reds this afternoon. "This game is a worry for Arsenal," Merson wrote in his Sportskeeda column.
