Some 14 points separate Liverpool and Arsenal heading into this clash at the Emirates Stadium, but as Dominik Szoboszlai has said in the build-up, [only one of them can currently call themselves champions](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/dominik-szoboszlai-sends-champions-message-33182964).
However, memories of last season's title triumph have long since faded away for the Reds, as this term's scrap for a Champions League place takes hold. The Gunners, meanwhile, would pull eight points clear of second-placed Manchester City at the top with a win, as they desperately hunt down a first Premier League title for 22 years.
Liverpool are returning to London just four days [after the 2-2 draw at Fulham](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/fulham-liverpool-score-live-stream-33163009) which extended their current unbeaten run to nine matches in all competitions, but with the football unconvincing and Arne Slot dealing with an array of squad issues, things aren't exactly rosy in the Reds' garden right now.
This promises to be perhaps the toughest test of Liverpool's domestic season then, and you can join our intrepid duo Ian Doyle and Paul Gorst for all the action from the 8pm GMT kick-off.

Just four days after the 2-2 draw at Fulham it is back to London for Liverpool this evening, and a meeting with an Arsenal side looking hell bent on taking their Premier League title.
It could be an eventful night.
