The Arsene Wenger record Mikel Arteta could break this season amid Arsenal's win over Liverpool

Arsenal made it eight wins from nine in the Premier League on Sunday as they defeated Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side 3-2 at the Emirates Stadium. The victory means that the Gunners stay top of the table for another week despite being temporarily displaced on Saturday afternoon by Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.

Gabriel Martinelli opened the scoring on the day by finding the back of the net in just 58 seconds. Liverpool levelled proceedings through Darwin Nunez after 34 minutes but Bukayo Saka gave Arsenal the lead for a second time on the stroke of half-time.

Liverpool restored parity again on 53 minutes as Roberto Firmino scored his 10th goal against the Gunners in just 17 appearances. Arsenal were awarded a penalty 15 minutes from time thanks to a challenge from Thiago Alcantara on Gabriel Jesus.
