Liverpool will have a major say in the title race when they welcome Arsenal to Anfield on Sunday.
Usually Liverpool have enter this time of the season embroiled in battles to secure the Premier League crown.
Now the roles are reversed as league-leaders Arsenal arrive full of confidence and looking to move clear of Manchester City.
The home side thrashed Manchester United but have now gone on a poor run of form with no wins in three league matches (D1, L2). It leaves them in eighth.
Each of those losses came on the road though as they hope the Anfield crowd can spur them to a big win.
Arsenal have often felt the wrath of a buoyant away day visit too, with Liverpool winning each of the last six PL H2Hs at Anfield by an aggregate score of 22-4!
Arsenal’s potential title-winning mentality was on full display in their 3-2 success over Liverpool in the reverse fixture, meaning they could earn themselves a first league double over the Reds since 2009/10.
The Gunners approach the weekend with an eight-point gap to Manchester City, thanks in part to their away form as they’ve won seven more points on the road than their closest title rivals.
Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus will be confident he can return the favour after his brace against Leeds. He’s also been involved in six goals in his last six encounters with Liverpool (G2, A4).
