On January 20, the second leg of the English League Cup semi-final will take place, in which Arsenal will play Liverpool at home. The forecast for this match is given by the well-known commentator of "Match TV" Timur Zhuravel.
The first semi-final match at Anfield ended a week ago with a goalless draw 0:0. To make a forecast for the second match, you need to recall the development of events in the first match, and there the Merseysiders struck the first shot on target only during the compensated time of the match, although they played most of the match in the majority - Djaka was removed in the first half. Liverpool obviously can't make up for the loss of Mane and Salah, who left for the African Cup of Nations, and they can't offer anything interesting in attack.
Arsenal again proved to be a very organized team. Mikel Arteta showed his managerial abilities very well, who made the right substitutions after being removed, and even later rebuilt his team's game with 5 defenders. At the same time, the Gunners played extremely calmly, without any signs of panic. We can conclude that Arsenal are simply better than Liverpool now.
Timur Zhuravel expects that the Londoners will decide to play on their own in this meeting, while Liverpool will not find the resources to offer Arsenal something new. Therefore, the expert is betting on the passage of the "gunners" to the final.
