Arsenal faces a crucial league game against Liverpool, a test of their title defense after a consistent start to the season. Mikel Arteta's side is being threatened by Manchester City. Arsenal needs to win, seeking their first victory at Anfield since 2012. Liverpool has been improving with their big-money signings meeting expectations.
Liverpool's improvement, with their big-money signings performing well, makes them a more dangerous opponent than when they faced Manchester City. City won their game, but Liverpool was reduced to ten men before City scored. Arsenal will find it harder to win as Anfield is a tough venue with a poor record for the Gunners.
A win is essential for Arsenal to keep pace with Manchester City, and a loss could affect their confidence. Although a draw wouldn't be disastrous, losing at Anfield would be disappointing. Arsenal's consistency has been their strength, and they must show that again to rise to the occasion and test their title credentials.

Arsenal faces Liverpool in their next league game after their consistent start to the season, and that would be an important game to measure how ready they are to defend the league title. Mikel Arteta’s side has done well so far, but Manchester City is threatening to stop them from defending the league title they won in the summer. Arsenal has to keep winning, and that means they need to earn a first victory at Anfield since 2012, when they visit that ground again at the weekend.
