“Defeating Arsenal Is Important For Our Champions League Qualification” – Suarez

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez, has said that it is important for them to defeat Arsenal this weekend, to give the team a huge lift in their quest to regain Champions League football.

The Gunners defeated the Anfield club 2-0 when both sides first met this season and the two will lock horns again at Anfield on Saturday.

“Arsenal are the leaders in the table and victory would be good for morale, give the whole squad an enormous injection and reduce the points difference at the top,” Suarez said.

“We didn’t have success at the Emirates [Arsenal won November's reverse fixture, 2-0] so our objective now is to win and I believe we have that chance.

“It has been such a hard season. It’s rare that everything could be decided on the last day but we must keep going and to ensure that happens we need results against the other main candidates.”
