Liverpool vs Arsenal LIVE: Premier League latest score and updates

about 1 hour ago

The reigning top-flight champions head to Merseyside reeling from their Carabao Cup embarrassment at the hands of fourth-tier Fleetwood, eager to quickly reassert some authority and move back to the top of the table after leaders Manchester City lost again yesterday. But to do so they will need to end their hoodoo at this famous old ground, where they have remarkably not won in the league since 2012.

Arsenal are likely to face a stern test from an in-form Liverpool team who sit fifth and will be harbouring title ambitions of their own under Andoni Iraola after winning their last five matches across all competitions, including holding their nerve in a penalty shootout against Chelsea in midweek. 19-year-old Trey Nyoni makes his first Premier League start for the Reds in midfield, while Mikel Arteta has Riccardo Calafiori, Declan Rice and Noni Madueke all fit and available as Christos Tzolis also comes straight back in after injury.
