Arsenal vs Liverpool Pre-Match Facts
Arsenal won this exact fixture 3-2 last season, last beating Liverpool at home in consecutive Premier League campaigns in 2013-14 and 2014-15.
Liverpool have scored in each of their last 16 Premier League games against Arsenal since a goalless draw in August 2015. Overall, they’re the only side to score 100+ goals against the Gunners in the competition (108).
This will be the 200th league meeting between Arsenal and Liverpool, the fifth fixture to have been played as many times in English football history. Liverpool have won 79 to Arsenal’s 66 so far (D54).
Liverpool won 2-0 against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in the FA Cup third round last month. There have been five occasions of a team winning twice away against the Gunners in the same season, with three of those coming across the last three campaigns (Nottingham Forest 1987-88, Aston Villa 1993-94, Manchester City 2020-21, Liverpool 2021-22, Brighton 2022-23).
Arsenal have taken five points from their last three Premier League games against Liverpool (W1 D2), as many as they had in their previous 12 (W1 D2 L9). They’re looking to remain unbeaten in four league games against the Reds for the first time since between December 2014 and January 2016 (W1 D3).
Arsenal have opened the scoring in their last three Premier League games against Liverpool, doing so in the opening 10 minutes of the match each time. They last scored first in four straight league meetings with the Reds between August 1967 and November 1970 (a run of six).
Liverpool have won their last four Premier League away games, scoring 10 goals and conceding just one. It’s just one fewer win than they had in their previous 15 on the road in the league (W5 D7 L3).
Gabriel Martinelli has more goal contributions against Liverpool in all competitions than he has against any other opponent for Arsenal (4 goals, 2 assists).
