'Liverpool have got something Arsenal haven't': Carragher backs Reds to win EPL

Jamie Carragher has favoured Liverpool to win the Premier League title over Arsenal, claiming that Jurgen Klopp's experience having won the title back in 2020 will bode in their favour.

Liverpool take on Newcastle on Monday night and have the opportunity to extend their lead at the top of the league table, with Arsenal dropping to fourth place in the standings, two points behind the Merseyside outfit.

The Reds have been in flying form of late, losing just one match in their last 13 Premier League appearances. During that time, Liverpool have also claimed draws against Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal.

But speaking with Gary Neville and David Jones on Sky Sport's Monday Night Football, Carragher reflected on how the Reds have improved in recent months.

The former Liverpool defender said: 'The team's growing. It's getting better as the weeks go on. And I agree with Gary that Liverpool have got something Arsenal haven't got, which is a manager who's won the title before and has got players in that squad, who are genuinely world class players.'

Despite that, Carragher did not think that Jurgen Klopp's current side was quite as good as the team that won the Champions League in the 2018-19 season and then lifted the league title in the 2019-20 season.

When asked what he thought about Liverpool's title chances, he said: 'You can't help but look at this Liverpool team compared to the team that won the league.

'And it's not as good as that team. That was a unbelievable team.

'But you then look at the facts. And this is a team who from the end of last season to right now have lost one Premier League game and thirteen.

'That is an unbelievable record for anyone, you know, for Manchester City if they were on a roll like that
