Liverpool v Arsenal: Match stats and facts

Liverpool have won their last four home league games against Arsenal - they've not won more consecutively against the Gunners at Anfield since a run of seven between 1981-1988.

Arsenal's 2-1 victory over Liverpool back in July was their first win over the Reds in 10 Premier League games (D4 L5). The Gunners are looking to win back-to-back league games against them for the first time since September 2012.

Since a 1-0 victory over Leicester in April 2017, Arsenal are winless in their last six Premier League games against the reigning champions (D2 L4). However, Arsenal have won each of their last three against Liverpool with the Reds as reigning champions (2-0 in May 1989, 3-0 in December 1990 and 1-0 in March 1991).

Only three top-flight fixtures - Liverpool v Man Utd (27), Chelsea v Man Utd (20) and Arsenal v Man Utd (18) - have seen more defeats for reigning champions than the 16 between Arsenal and Liverpool, with the Gunners enjoying 10 such victories against the Reds.

Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 60 Premier League home games (W49 D11) since a 1-2 loss against Crystal Palace in April 2017. Only Chelsea (86 between 2004-2008) and Liverpool themselves (63 between 1978-1980) have had longer such runs in English top-flight history.

Arsenal are looking to win their opening three games to a Premier League season for the first time since the 2004-05 campaign, when they won their first five.

Since Jürgen Klopp's first Premier League game in charge of Liverpool, only Manchester City (35 v Watford & 30 v Bournemouth) have scored more goals against a side than his Liverpool team has versus Arsenal (27).

In 24 Premier League appearances against Arsenal combined for Liverpool, Roberto Firmino (8), Mohamed Salah (5) and Sadio Mané (5) have netted 67% of the Reds' goals versus the Gunners since August 2015 (18/27), including 10 of the last 12.

Arsenal's Alexandre Lacazette has scored four goals in his last six Premier League games, netting in both of his appearances so far this season. He last scored in three consecutive league games back in February 2019.

Mikel Arteta is looking to become the first Arsenal manager to win on his first away trip to Liverpool in all competitions since Tom Whittaker in December 1947. Nine Gunners managers since then have failed to win their first such visit, with eight of those losing.

Liverpool and Arsenal will both be looking to keep their 100 percent starts to the new Premier League season going when they face off at Anfield on Monday night.
