Key Takeaways:
- Liverpool will set a new club record for consecutive Premier League matches scored in with a goal against Arsenal on Sunday
- The Reds have failed to win any of their last 5 league encounters with Arsenal
- Liverpool head into the tie unbeaten in 18 consecutive home Premier League matches
Chasing Club and League History
Liverpool are on the verge of rewriting their own record books as they prepare to face Arsenal this Sunday. Arne Slot’s men have found the net in each of their past 36 Premier League outings, drawing level with the scoring streak set under Jürgen Klopp between March 2019 and February 2020. If Liverpool score against the Gunners, they will establish a new benchmark for consecutive scoring matches in club history.
Slot’s impact in attack has been tangible, with the Reds recording goals in 39 out of his 40 Premier League fixtures – a 98% strike rate, the highest ever achieved by a manager in the league. The only match without a goal remains their 1–0 defeat to Nottingham Forest in September last year.
🚨A goal against Arsenal on Sunday would see Liverpool set a new club record for scoring in consecutive games in the top flight.
