Joe Allen Saved Liverpool from Defeat

Anfield -- Many goals happened in this match. Until 5 minutes before the game ended, Arsenal looks like will earn 3 points and secure their top position. Arsenal had their advantage at the top of the Premier League cut after Joe Allen's late equalizer gave Liverpool a deserved point in an Anfield thriller.

Roberto Firmino twice gave Liverpool the lead in a breathless first half.  But Olivier Giroud's second-half strike - his second of the night and 18th of the season - looked to have put the Gunners on course for a crucial victory before Joe Allen made the equalizer and made the score 3-3.

Arsenal, when they should have been pressuring a desperately poor and under-strength Liverpool defence, instead allowed themselves to be pushed back. This was two points lost and Klopp will be the much happier manager. 

With this result, Arsenal still on the top, but only lead by goal difference by Leicester City who can surprisingly beat Spurs in White Hart Lane. Arsenal and Leicester collect 43 points, followed by Manchester City with 40 points -- because they failed to win against Everton.

IST PREDICTION : OVER 2.5 GOALS
