Arsenal are on an incredible Premier League run with seven wins from 8 matches. They only lost to Manchester United at Old Trafford.

The Gunners brushed aside 10-man Tottenham at the Emirates to build on their winning run in the race to win the season title.

Despite the victory over Spurs in the North London Derby, there are still skirmishes in the Gunners’ brilliant pull this season – a loss to a struggling Manchester United means Arteta have to do more.

The Liverpool game will be another chance for Arteta to convince doubting pundits that the Gunners are ready to challenge for the Premier League title.

Arsenal Vs Liverpool: Match Preview

Bookmakers will tip the Gunners to carry the day against Liverpool, but it will not be a rosy ride for the in-form Mikel Arteta squad.

Arsenal’s stride in the Premier League this season has turned them into a feared opponent in Premier League matches so far.

Arsenal’s last Premier League match ended in a 3-1 win over Tottenham

The team showed their class and pedigree in their last game against Antonio Conte’s Tottenham, who was also unbeaten before the game at the Emirates.

Mikel Arteta’s squad dominated their visitors and easily grabbed all three points against Tottenham to maintain their lead on the table.

Arsenal are unbeaten since the defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford. They are comfortably at the top of the Premier League after 8 matches, garnering 21 points, a point ahead of Manchester City, who are second on the table with 20 points.

Liverpool have struggled this season. Despite showing signs of improvement after defeating Manchester City in the Community Shield, they have managed just two wins, four draws, and a defeat.

Liverpool’s last Premier League game ended in a disappointing 3-3 draw with Roberto De Zerbi’s Brighton.

The Reds came from two goals down to take the lead against the Seagulls but later surrendered to a six-goal thriller, with both sides sharing the spoils.

Despite picking up form in their European campaign, the Reds Premier League form is far from expectation.
