Former Manchester United man Gary Neville has warned Arsenal about Anfield as the Gunners visit Liverpool in search of more league points.
Liverpool’s home is one of the toughest places for away clubs in European football and they could play a key role in the title race.
The Reds are on a terrible run of form and were at the end of a serious beating by Manchester City in the Premier League at the weekend.
However, when they play in front of their own fans, they do far better than most teams at home.
The match against Arsenal gives them a chance to return to form and Neville warns Arsenal it will be tough, but if they win, they will take a huge step towards the title.
He says via Liverpool Echo:
“I’m not going to put everything on the Liverpool game, our manager used to say to us, ‘You win at Anfield, you win the league’.
“If it was at this time of year quite often that proved to be the case. If Arsenal go to Anfield and win, I would definitely say it would be their title, because the confidence from that would be unbelievable.
“Anfield is a terror of a place to go, but if they lose at Anfield it then becomes a title race. I’m saying they’re going to lose it just because they lose at Anfield, but if they win at Anfield I think they will win it.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Anfield has almost been our worst ground to visit and this game will not be easier than the others we have had before now.
However, we expect our players to be prepared for whatever reception they will get in the game.

Useless pundit…..
After we beat Liverpool, he will say Liverpool has been poor all season that only beating City will guarantee arsenal winning d league.
How can anyone who knows about football think like this. Its obvious the team we need to beat to be able to win the league is our rivals city
100% agree with Savage – he’ll find one thing after another to try to tear us down. I dont mind people being critical – cant always be sunshine and rainbows but his absolute bias against us is comical.
I am sure he is right and anyone who doesn’t heed his warning is a fool.
I think his disbelief in this arsenal team has being propelling the boys to doing magnificent stuffs this season. Everybody can’t necessarily be supporting you 100%.
As much as I hate to say it, I must admit it, am strongly in agreement with footballer turn pundit Neville on this one.
Forget about the Citizens, this is like the last Massive test, the legendary Henry confirms the pundit argument, he said that place is electric its the ultimate football spectacle.
Am going to make a big call , and am prepare to put my money where my mouth is, ‘ Win at Anfield and we win the league, its over
Remember 1989.Arsenal had a mt to climb but by God they did it.
Theres no reason why Arsenal cant win and shut up the cynics like GN,a No 1 Arsenal criti
Mark you that AFC today is not that one of Mustaphi , Laçazette and Pepe.
It is AFC of Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli
Zinchenko and Partey. We have depth. So no amount of mere noise and threats of the past will change the Arsenal’s Playing style, DNA or Hunger to win.
Neville is a hypocritical bitter man….
He still believes msn utd will finish second above arsenal in the league!
He’s a Totally pointless person
Just listening to You’ll Never Walk Alone gives me goosebumps so hearing the Liverpool faithful giving it their all at Anfield is electrifying for the home team. It’s like being given a one nil lead before the ball has been kicked
That said, Liverpool have blown hot and cold this season and we have found a way to win more often than not. We may not win at the weekend but I don’t see us capitulating. I don’t see us being weak.
People like Neville who were used to winning by cheating ,monarchy influence and biased Match officials can’t even show cause what he is saying. Surely beating Liverpool will be a much needed boost ,but History tells us that when Arsenal’s is playing the way we are playing only disgruntled pundits like him and carbon copy like referee (Howard Webb) will ruin the momentum,otherwise punch on punch out match up is Man City as it stands now. Arsenal till 4ver.
