Football fans of the Premier League are going to be in for a treat ahead of Christmas as the top two sides in the English top-flight, Arsenal and Liverpool, will take each other on at the Anfield on Saturday evening.
The Premier League's top three sides - with Aston Villa in third - are separated by a point each from each other, and although it would be very premature to call tomorrow's top-of-the-table clash a title-decider, it will certainly be a huge confidence booster for the winning team's ambitions to lift the league.

The Gunners enter this fixture as the league leaders with 39 points from 17 games, having made light work of Roberto De Zerbi's Brighton in a 2-0 defeat of the Seagulls at the Emirates. However, Mikel Arteta's troops will face a daunting task as the north Londoners haven't tasted victory at Anfield since 2012.
On the other hand, Liverpool have made quite a comeback in the Premier League this season, having finished outside the top four in the 2022-23 season. They sit just one point below their upcoming opponents and have lost only one game all season. Jurgen Klopp's men, though, will certainly not be pleased with their result against a struggling Manchester United side. The two sides left Old Trafford sharing the spoils in what was a cagey affair for large parts.
So, who's going to head into the winter break as the table toppers? The Sporting News previews the game below with our prediction and best bets.
