Liverpool FC vs Arsenal FC Updates and highlights, Premier League 2025: Premier League defending champions Liverpool have defeated Arsenal 1-0 at Anfield, thanks to a pitch-perfect freekick from Dominik Szoboszlai that curled into the goal from 30 yards out, dipping over the Arsenal wall and curling into the top corner past a diving David Raya. Liverpool head into the international break with the only unblemished and undefeated record in the Premier League and a two-point lead over Chelsea.
While Liverpool have nine points from their three games, the Gunners, meanwhile, are in third spot, with six points from three games. Arsenal suffered an early injury blow to defender William Saliba, who was replaced by Mosquera inside the first five minutes of the game.

Liverpool made one change to their starting XI — Alexis Mac Allister replacing Curtis Jones — vs Arsenal, who have Gabriel Martinelli and Mikel Merino in the XI in place of Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard. Both sides have once again started the season strongly, winning both their games so far.
However, Arne Slot’s side will be looking to tighten their defences in the initial phases of the game, as in their opening two games, although they have managed to fall back 2-0, they somehow managed to win the games. On the flip side, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have kept clean sheets in both their opening games and have won quite convincingly.
Hence, on paper, it is a battle between a side that is tight on defence and a team that has an array of attacking talent who can create multiple ways to score goals and win games. So far, in 73 times both these sides have met in the league, Liverpool has won 26 times and Arsenal has managed to get over the line 20 times, with the remaining matches ending in a draw.
