This is the Blood Red Podcast from the Liverpool Echo, giving you the inside track on all the big talking points from Anfield.

Hello, I'm Paul Weilock and welcome to the Behind Enemy Lions podcast on the Blood Red channel

where we will be getting the inside track on Saturday's visitors to Anfield Arsenal.

Both teams will go into the match, boasting perfect starts to the new Premier League season but it would be

Liverpool who will be favors to make it nine points from nine not least because of

their recent record in games between the sides. The Reds have scored 23 goals in

the last seven unbeaten matches against the gunners,

a remarkable run of form which culminated in the stunning 5-1 victory at Anfield in the final game of 2018.

So will Arsenal be Lambs to the Slaughter once once more or will they be a different beast after an impressive

and unexpected summer spending spree which was headlined by the signing of Nicola Pepe who was linked with a move to

Liverpool before the 72 million pound arrival at the Emirates.

To answer those questions and many more, I picked up the phone to my five-aside playing partner,

Tom Marshall Bailey, who as well as being a big gooner can often be seen in the echo office in his role as the publishing editor for

reach PLC regionals. Thanks for joining me and we'll be back after the match with the post game

podcast. The Blood Red Podcast from the Liverpool Echo.

Well, hi Tom, thank you very much for joining me to talk all things in Arsenal before the

big top of the table clash at Anfield on Saturday night.

You okay okay mate?

Yeah, really good, thank you. Yeah, it's been a good start to the season for us.

I'm for Liverpool and part of me in a weird way was watching that Bulls United game on Monday kind of hoping that for more

reasons than one that United drop points but I kind of like the idea of this game being like centered on the two teams that have got 100% record and you know we are the only two

teams with that so it's really delicately poised.
