Arsenal is set to face Liverpool at Anfield in a highly anticipated fixture, with manager Mikel Arteta seeking his first Premier League victory at the stadium. The Gunners have a historically poor record at Anfield, not having won a league match there since 2012, a trend they aim to reverse.

Pundit Chris Sutton believes Arsenal can finally break their Anfield hoodoo, predicting a tight contest that could mirror last season's 1-0 result.

Such a victory would not only end a significant drought but also send a strong message about their championship ambitions, demonstrating their ability to succeed at one of the league's toughest venues.
