Match information

Arsenal and Liverpool still have 16 Premier League games left to play in 2023-24 but could their meeting at Emirates Stadium on Sunday be season-defining in the title race? Liverpool are top of the table, five points clear of second-placed Manchester City and Arsenal in third. Arsenal finished second in 2022-23, having led for much of the season. Manager Jurgen Klopp will leave Liverpool at the end of the campaign and is looking to win the league for the second time. Sunday's match (16:30 GMT) is the third between the two clubs in 2023-24, with Arsenal claiming a point when the pair met in the Premier League in December, while Liverpool ran out 2-0 winners in the FA Cup third round last month. "We can just play the best season we can play," Klopp said. "Arsenal, if they beat us, they are definitely there. There are so many games still to come and people like to judge already. "We will try to make it as hard as possible for everyone who wants to finish the season above us. Let's see if we can do it." Klopp confirmed striker Darwin Nunez is a doubt after suffering a foot injury in Wednesday's 4-1 win against Chelsea but said he has "a luxury problem" for the first time this season with multiple players fit and available to fill each position. Arsenal are set to be without Thomas Partey once again after the Ghana midfielder suffered a "setback" in his recovery from a thigh injury. On the challenge of facing Liverpool, Gunners boss Mikel Arteta said: "We play at home and what I sense is positivity and enthusiasm around the place. "We had some big experiences and what we did last year was a big step. This year we want to do even better."
