FA Cup: It's Difficult Playing At Emirates --Jot

Liverpool star Diogo Jota has revealed that he expect a difficult game against Arsenal in today’s FA Cup clash at the Emirates Stadium.

In a chat with Liverpoolfc, the Portuguese international stated that the Reds are ready for the big task.

“Arsenal [are] a great team, no doubt about it. They are maybe not in the best run of form at the moment, but they are a big team and the game they played at Anfield was proof of that.

“It was a lot of intensity, teams really going for each other, and we dug out a draw that was not what we wanted, but they were able to do that.

“Now, like I said, they are not in the best run of form, so maybe they look at this cup as a very important competition for them. We go there, it’s going to be tough, 100 per cent, but we can go there and win.”

“I think no-one really expected [Arsenal to drop points] but games in December come really quick, fast, and they are Premier League games, so it is always hard.

“I think they have that extra advantage of trying to make things right and they lost their last game at home, so they don’t want to do it again for sure.

“We know that’s going to be psychologically an advantage for them, but it will still be a football game and like I said, we are able to go there and win.

“I think especially in the first round that we are in [the competition] we get this trip to Arsenal, it doesn’t get much tougher, but it’s part of the draw and we know that we can go there and beat them and that’s what we want to do.”
