Liverpool is now six points clear of Arsenal in the table, and it still has a game in hand to play too. As the two sides vie for the title, Reds legend has between them.
"I think there is a different mentality around and where I think Liverpool are a little bit calmer," Carragher said on Sky Sports. "They have won the title in the last few years.
"They’ve got players who’ve won the title and there’s a calmness to the manager, there’s no doubt about that. We’re still getting to know him in some ways. I think with Arsenal, I think the pressure’s cranked up because I think the frustration comes from the fact that they’re not chasing Man City."

Like Liverpool before it, Arsenal has battled with in the last couple of seasons but didn't get over the line. Now, when Manchester City has dropped off, the Gunners have stumbled.
"Because Man City have fallen away, they can’t actually believe it’s Liverpool in that position and not themselves," Carragher added. "I think that cranks up the pressure.
"It feels to me that every time I watch Arsenal play, they’re only one game away from a crisis. It will feel like a crisis this morning on the back of what happened yesterday (), but they’re still in the title race. A lot of that comes down to the fact it’s actually Liverpool they’re chasing and not Manchester City."
Liverpool.com says: There is no doubt that the pressure is on Arsenal to keep pace at the moment. While Liverpool has not been perfect lately, dropping points against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest, the Gunners don't look capable of putting together a 10-game winning run. They would need to do that as well as the Reds dropping off for the teams to swap places in the standings.
