Arsenal face a trip to Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Gunners will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in October 2003, with Arsenal inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Reds in a Premiership match.
