What the managers have said
Jurgen Klopp: "They [Arsenal] are a good mix between physicality, like big, strong players, fast, good technique, very good organisation, they are really well-coached, well-drilled. You can see every year they make another step.
"They really have my respect but we want the points anyway."
Mikel Arteta: "It's going to be a special atmosphere. Obviously, the two teams are in a great moment, in a really good position. Really strong position. Both teams, I'm sure, have prepared the game to win it and to go for it and it's going to be an intense match.
"The atmosphere is something that it's important to understand . But we now have the experience of what we did last year that has worked for big parts of the game. And that's a lot of things that we have to replicate and some others that we have to do better to win tomorrow."
