Overview
- Sunday at Anfield pairs unbeaten Liverpool and Arsenal in an early-season measure of title credentials.
- Liverpool have scored seven in two wins but conceded four, with £116m signing Florian Wirtz still adjusting and new left back Milos Kerkez struggling.
- Hugo Ekitike has scored in both league matches, and Liverpool’s year-long home league run faces a test from Viktor Gyokeres after his brace against Leeds.
- Arsenal have posted two clean sheets and added Eberechi Eze to deepen their forward options, reducing the impact of injuries to Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard.
- Elsewhere, Tottenham pursue a third straight win against Bournemouth, Manchester City visit Brighton after losing to Spurs, and pressure grows on winless Manchester United following a League Cup upset at Grimsby.
