Preview: Liverpool v Arsenal

The top two in the Premier League go head to head in what could well be a pre-Christmas cracker, as we hope to occupy the number one spot by the time the big day arrives.

To guarantee that, we’ll need to achieve something we’ve not done for 11 years - win at Anfield. Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 13 home games against us in all competitions since September 2012, when Mikel Arteta was in our midfield and Lukas Podolski and Santi Cazorla got the goals.

We have drawn on three of our last four visits, and after ending one hoodoo last week by finally beating Brighton & Hove Albion at home, Arteta will be hoping the three points he desires most for Christmas are delivered a couple of days early, ahead of the first of three scheduled encounters with the Merseysiders in the space of 43 days.
