Liverpool-Arsenal, it will be settled on Boxing Day!

No winner this Saturday in the clash of the 18th round of the Premier League between Liverpool and Arsenal.

The first two teams in the English elite, Arsenal and Liverpool, separated with a score of parity this Saturday at Anfield (1-1). The Gunners were able to keep their short lead at the helm of the Premier League (40 points against 39) at the end of an intense and indecisive duel.

If the Londoners were quick to find the fault, by Gabriel (4e), the Reds responded before the half-hour mark thanks to a nice strike from Salah (29e). The regrets will ultimately be more in the Liverpool camp, which notably touched wood with Alexander-Arnold in the second period.

Arsenal and their first runner-up from Liverpool, who are back on goal difference ahead of Aston Villa, will have the opportunity to decide again via Boxing Day next week. Liverpool will face Burnley on Tuesday, when the Villans travel to Manchester United; Arsenal will face West Ham on Thursday.
