Liverpool won their third consecutive victory in the English Premier League this season, after beating 0/1 to a 3/1 victory over Arsenal on Monday.
Liverpool took revenge on Arsenal, who won England’s Charity Shield Cup weeks ago, by beating Liverpool on a penalty shoot-out (5/4), after a 1-1 draw, and Arsenal also beat Liverpool 2/1 last July in the English Premier League.
Liverpool raised their score to 9 points, at the top of the English Premier League with Leicester City and Everton.
Liverpool and Arsenal will meet again next Thursday in the round of 16 of the English Professional League Cup, then Liverpool will play Aston Villa and Arsenal will play Sheffield United in the English Premier League.
