Gold hosts silver in Sunday's Premier League main event, as reigning champions Liverpool take on perpetual runners-up Arsenal at Anfield in an early title six-pointer.

Both contenders will put 100% records on the line on August 31, but while the Reds trump the Gunners on the scoring front, it has been a different story defensively thus far.

Head-to-head:

• Liverpool have won 25 of the 66 Premier League meetings between the two teams.
• Arsenal have recorded 18 victories.
• The remaining 23 clashes ended in draws.
• Two of the last five matches between the Reds and the Gunners have ended in a draw.
• The Gunners have secured two clean sheets in their last two matches.
• Liverpool have already conceded four goals in both of their previous EPL games.
• Their last 10 encounters produced at least 2 goals.

Form:

• Liverpool in the League: W-W
• Arsenal in the League: W-W

Team News:

• Jeremie Frimpong is injured and will not be in action for Liverpool. Alexis Mac Allister and Stefan Bajcetic might come in as substitutes, as they have trained with the squad.
• Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus are injured, hence keeping them out of action for Arsenal. Christian Norgaard and Ben White might also sit out due to fitness issues. Martin Odegaard is also a doubt due to an injury he picked up in the last match.

Player(s) to watch:

• Hugo Ekitike has performed well for Liverpool in both of their previous league games. The 23-year-old French forward has scored two goals in two Premier League appearances. He is set to play a crucial role in the attacking front for the Reds once again, and it will be interesting to see his performance in this role.
• Viktor Gyokeres is coming in after scoring a sensational brace in Arsenal’s 5-0 win against Leeds United in their last league fixture. The 27-year-old Swedish forward looked good throughout the game and will yet again be seen in the final third for the Gunners. Gyokeres shut down his doubters and will be looking to come up with a similar performance here.
