Hello and welcome to The Athletic's live coverage of the Premier League match between Arsenal and Liverpool. The two teams go into the match knowing a win ...

“I think it was working well, we created many chances in the first half and second half, we tried to score. The decision to drop Fabinho, who has struggled as much as anyone during Liverpool’s troubled start to the season, was certainly vindicated. For a start, they looked more secure with the double pivot of Jordan Henderson and Thiago protecting the back four. If you call him in 20 years, it will be the same.” and I don't think we should compare now in this moment anybody with that. No, like for all of us.

"Liverpool played against Rangers in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday and won quite comfortably, while Arsenal are in UEFA Europa League action later today.

"Jurgen Klopp's side were very comfortable against Rangers in the Champions League on Tuesday, but they weren't tested defensively. While the Gunners are playing well and are full of confidence, things still aren't right at Liverpool, as far as I can see. "Liverpool played four forwards against Rangers and dominated the game as they secured a 2-0 win at Anfield. "If Arsenal win against Liverpool and manage to stay close to Manchester City in the coming months, they could well be contenders for the Premier League title this season. "Roberto Firmino could come back into the team for this one, while Fabinho could slot into midfield to give them some more protection away from home. The Reds will have a bit more rest heading into the much-anticipated Premier League clash, but on current form, Arsenal are probably the favourites as things stand.

Arsenal enter Sunday's match 11 points clear of Liverpool, knowing that a win will take them back to the top.

Firmino is Liverpool’s top scorer this season and the subtlety of his movement could allow him to slip between Arsenal’s imposing centre-backs. There is a decision to be made on personnel too, with Nunez and Roberto Firmino vying for the spot up top. Van Dijk has looked well short of the high standards he’s set at Liverpool. The additions of Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko from Manchester City have added steel to Arsenal’s soft underbelly. The two clubs are on opposite ends of their evolution journeys. The Dutchman is the backbone of this Liverpool side and his weakness at the back this season has led to the team’s fragility.

A highly anticipated Premier League clash takes the field at the Emirates in London as first-place Arsenal host Liverpool with a chance to jump back into ...

- Arsenal vs. Arsenal are fifth with 47, so the Gunners are prolific at getting forward as well. Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus is profiting as the focal point of the Gunners' attack, collecting 0.78 xG/90 minutes played. Meanwhile, for all of Arsenal's firepower up front, they have also conceded just 7.40 xGA at the back, good for second in the league. Liverpool have been dominant in this series, but the narratives are completely different this time around. Meanwhile, Liverpool are having problems in midfield and on the flanks. The attacking volume for Arsenal is high, and they're converting at a solid rate, scoring 20 goals on 16.66 xG. Most notably for Arsenal is the midfield tandem of Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey, which is bossing the middle of the field in recent matches. If Arsenal are ever going to buck their recent poor trend against Liverpool, now is the chance. The two teams have exceptional attacking talent, so that was always expected. A win for the Gunners would send them soaring, atop the Premier League table and with a win over a big league rival. Liverpool, by contract, have sputtered, sitting ninth with just two wins through seven matches.

Arsenal host Liverpool in what is their biggest test of the Premier League season so far with a win enough to take Mikel Arteta 14 points ahead of Jurgen ...

Oleksandr Zinchenko was absent from training on Wednesday and subsequently missed Thursday night's 3-0 win over Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League. Mikel Arteta has given plenty of opportunities for young stars to glimpse the first team. "It will certainly be the first time Arsenal have a massive chance against Liverpool. Arsenal's record against Jurgen Klopp's side is abysmal and save for a smash-and-grab win behind closed doors at the Emirates Stadium, they have not beaten the Reds in 90 minutes since 2015. Liverpool though remains the final pillar to topple. Around 14 players got involved in a heated exchange on the pitch with plenty of pushing and shoving going on. It seems like we say this every week, but this really does feel like the biggest test Arsenal have faced all the season. Mikel Arteta was coy about revealing too much regarding his team news with Oleksandr Zinchenko absent from training and the squad that beat Bodo/Glimt 3-0 on Thursday night. (18+, new customers only, T&C’s) Arsenal could achieve their biggest win of the season so far to secure top spot in the Premier League table once again. Arteta has gone for technical security over defensive solidity with that Tomiyasu over Tierney selections. Liverpool are also without their first-choice left-back Andrew Robertson.

Arsenal are flying high at the top of the Premier League, and victory over Liverpool would move them 14 points clear of the Reds.The Gunners have won.

- Liverpool’s Diogo Jota has six goals in eight Premier League appearances against Arsenal, including five in four for the Reds. The Brazilian has also scored more Premier League goals against Arsenal (9) than he has versus any other opponent. - Arsenal have won one of their last 14 Premier League matches against Liverpool (D4 L9), a 2-1 home win back in July 2020. However, the Gunners haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last nine home league games. They have only had one longer run against an opponent without a clean sheet in the competition: 14 versus Man City (ongoing). Free Bets expire in 7 days.

I am very positive, I am very optimistic. So you cannot say we’re back.

Arsenal will hope to regain top spot in the table, while Liverpool will want to reduce the gap between them and the top four.consecutive victory as Chelsea ...

Liverpool, on the other hand, have had the worst start to a Premier League season in recent times, winning just twice this season. Arsenal come on the back of a thrilling 3-1 victory against an in-form Tottenham Hotspur. Mikel Arteta's side lie in 2nd place in the table with 21 points in 8 games, while Jurgen Klopp's men have collected a meagre 10 points in 7 games.
