Two of the top five in the Premier League meet in the last sixteen of the EFL Cup. Liverpool top the league and have already beaten fifth placed Arsenal once at home this season. A very different set of line-ups will compete this match though. Liverpool have won the EFL Cup more times than any other club with eight victories. The last of those came in 2012 with only one final since then three years ago. Jurgen Klopp isn't a massive fan of the domestic cup competitions in the UK, he wants to win the Premier League and Champions League. Four of their last five games in the EFL Cup have been lost, including the last two played at home. 

Arsenal had a disappointing home draw with Crystal Palace on Sunday, giving away a 2-goal lead. That's the second time they've done that this season, remember that if they miss out narrowly on a top four finish. They have won this competition just twice, the last win being in 1993. Arsenal continue to have problems on their travels with only one win in their last five. Already this season, they have lost 3-1 to Liverpool making it nine games without a win against them. 11 of the last 13 games between these two clubs have seen both teams score. That looks the best bet here.
