Champions Jurgen Klopp began their title defense with a thrilling but unusually error-prone 4-3 over Leeds on the first day of the season, before overtaking Chelsea in a comfortable victory at Stamford Bridge last weekend.
Meanwhile, Mikel Arteta’s team has continued the momentum of their back-to-back victories at Wembley, defeating both Fulham and West Ham. The Gunners will also be sure to cause an upset, having beaten Liverpool in the pair’s last two meetings. Follow all the action below:

Jurgen Klopp seems quite taken aback by Roy Keane’s claims that Liverpool were ‘sloppy’ at times tonight. “This was absolutely exceptional, nothing was neglected, it was absolutely dominant against a fit team,” the Liverpool manager told Sky Sports studio. “The football we played was absolutely exceptional.”

It could have been very different if Lacazette had buried that opportunity in the second half, with the score at 2-1. However, Alisson, as always, did his job when asked, and Arsenal cannot have many complaints about losing.

That’s! Liverpool have three wins out of three, and this could have been their most impressive performance of the new season. Arsenal, despite all their efforts, could not contain the champions. There were signs of promise for the Gunners, but they, like most clubs in the division, are still a long way from Liverpool.

OBJECTIVE! Liverpool 3-1 Arsenal (Jota)
Jota won’t be denied this time. Another excellent cross from Alexander-Arnold is headed by Luiz, but only to the substitute, who controls with his thigh and throws a volley into the lower corner. A perfect start to club life for Jota, and that will put the game beyond Arsenal.

Liverpool threatens to score a third again when Wijnaldum passes the ball to Jota in the area. He seems ready to shoot from close range, but Salah, approaching from behind, tries to take the ball from him and only gets Leno to claim the fumble.

Pepe takes another poor corner, sending it low and straight to Robertson. Arsenal haven’t created much since that Lacazette opportunity, which is probably why the Frenchman looked so distraught after he was taken out. That was the moment of the visitors.

Salah hits inside from the right and passes a perfect ball to Jota. The former Wolves man takes a bunt and plants his shot into the side net, enough to fool the bogus crowd noise into a premature celebration.
