Both teams have made a 100% start to the new season but it will require a first win at Anfield for seven years, or a rare display of substance at least, for the visitors’ credentials to be taken seriously. Arsenal’s last three visits to Liverpool have produced 5-1, 4-0 and 3-1 defeats. There was another 5-1 humiliation in 2014 after Arsène Wenger’s team started the day as Premier League leaders. Arsenal’s quality up front could test a Liverpool defence that has not quite recaptured last season’s form. Andy Hunter
