This is the Behind Enemy Lines podcast on the Blood Red channel, bringing you the

inside track on Liverpool FC's next opponents.

Hello everybody and welcome to the latest behind enemy lines podcast on the Blood Red channel,

courtesy of the Liverpool Echo with myself Patrick Smith.

As we preview Liverpool's trip to the Emirates to take on Arsenal in the Premier League.

With Manchester City dropping points away at Crystal Palace, the Reds are now able to cut

the title race gap to just one point with victory over Arsenal, but that will by no means

be easy. Well I'm now delighted to be joined by writer and presented Tom Canton from the Arsenal way to discuss the nature of the task of

Liverpool.

So, Tom, what can our listening and watching loophole fans expect on Wednesday night?

Probably they're tough as... watching Little fans expect on Wednesday night.

Probably they're toughest challenge in quite a few games to be fair.

Arsenal have always been a side that I think Liverpool been fairly confident about facing in recent seasons. I don't think that's really up for debate and

Arsenal have kind of always approached these games with quite a lot of apprehension because we obviously

know how good Liverpool are but your arsenal have really

really changed in kind of the last three to four months especially since just

before the Christmas period hit we have gone for a really good period of form, beating sides that a lot of people kind of question

whether or not we'd have the guile to be able to beat. West Ham at home, Wolves home and away.

You know, we run Manchester City very, very close at the Emirates should have got arguably definitely a point maybe even more had we not you know

succumbs to the old arsenal traits of giving away penalties and getting red cards as we like to do these days.

But yeah, we had a really good opportunity in that game

to pick up three points.
