Here would see the battle between one of the best defenders in the world come against one of the best forward players as well.

It would be fascinating to see how Aubameyang fares against Van Dijk in the Liverpool-Arsenal encounter at Anfield.

While these players are key to their sides ambition from their managers perspective.

The Reds would be keen to keep Pierre-Emerick quiet via the defence discipline of Van Dijk in the central defence.

While the Arsenal skipper’s goal-scoring instinct would be brought to more test by his Dutch counterpart in this match.

The Brazilian who has to nationalize to feature for Spain would be key in the playmaking department for Liverpool.

Even as his ability to pick out Mo Salah and Diogo Jota in transition would be questioned by Ghana star Thomas Partey who missed his side’s game against South Africa during the International break.

While the Liverpool man is a creative player so to say, he would test himself as Partey brings his tactical awareness into this contest.

Mohamed Salah vs. Kieran Tierney

Only 90 minutes could be the ultimate decider here on this note as both players battles each other in this match with an eye for victory.
