Arsenal came within seconds of taking a win away from home at title rivals Manchester City in their first clash this season, in the final weekend of October, they will host what looks like could be a third title contender for the trophy. Liverpool are currently top of the table under new manager Arne Slot, and just a point separates the trio at the time of writing.
Mikel Arteta‘s side drew twice early on, but are looking increasingly strong again, and now have summer signing Mikel Merino to add to the mix. It’s an Arsenal side that has an increasingly Spanish, and increasingly Basque feel. Beyond Arteta himself, Martin Odegaard took his first decisive steps at the top level, like Merino, while David Rayo filled in well for La Roja in Unai Simon’s absence this month. Meanwhile Slot is working with just one summer addition in Federico Chiesa too, but is getting a fine tune out of the Reds in the early going.
The result at the Emirates will no doubt alter the narrative in terms of the title race, and provide a real measuring stick test of their sides for both managers. Over the last six meetings between the pair, five in the Premier League and one in the FA Cup, the results are split evenly: two Arsenal wins, two Liverpool wins and two draws.

The last outing saw the Gunners triumph 3-1 at home, with second half goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard proving decisive. Prior to that, Liverpool did win away at Arsenal, with an own goal from Jakub Kiwior and a Luis Diaz stoppage time effort sealing passage through to the next round.
Slot will be hoping to continue a relatively good record for Liverpool in North London, where Liverpool have won four of the last six meetings, with Arsenal victorious in the other two. If the Dutchman could inspire a victory, then his side would be sending out a statement to the rest of the Premier League and in particular, Manchester City.
On the other hand, Arteta has built this iteration of Arsenal on a solid defence, but the Gunners have not stopped Liverpool scoring since August of 2015. That record could inform the Basque manager’s approach, and they have five clean sheets in their first 10 games of the season so far. Liverpool have equally looked free-scoring, getting on the scoresheet at least twice in 8 of their 10 games thus far. Will he double down on being solid, or seek to give Liverpool a bloody nose?
How to Buy Tickets for Arsenal vs Liverpool
As one of the most highly anticipated fixtures in the Premier League this season, it is no surprise that demand is high for the clash on Sunday the 27th of October, with kick-off scheduled for 16:30 local time.
Indeed, Arsenal put their tickets on sale for members via a ballot system in mid-September, and have closed those ballots now. Members can still try to go through the club by logging on and buying tickets on their ticket exchange service. Equally Liverpool also only sold tickets for members who had been to 10 away games during the 2023-24 season. Their allocation for the away end has also been sold out already.
