Liverpool host Arsenal in crucial Premier League title race test
Liverpool face defending champions Arsenal at Anfield on Sunday in a match that could define the title race.
Liverpool host reigning champions Arsenal at Anfield on Sunday in what many see as a pivotal Premier League fixture. Liverpool are sixth points behind joint-leaders Arsenal and Manchester City after winning five consecutive games, while Arsenal seek to bounce back from a shock Carabao Cup defeat to League Two side Fleetwood Town. Analysts including Paul Merson say Liverpool must win to stay in genuine title contention, as losing would leave them nine points adrift. Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola has resisted talk of a title challenge, saying it is too early in October to focus on the standings. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher believes Liverpool are Arsenal's nearest challengers, particularly given uncertainty surrounding Manchester City. Iraola could welcome back midfielders Dominik Szoboszlai and Víctor Muñoz from injury.
