Arsenal missed the chance to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League to eight points after a goalless draw at home to Liverpool
Mikel Arteta had the likes of Gabriel Jesus, Eberechi Eze and Noni Madueke to call on from the bench. Liverpool did not make a change until stoppage time, one that was injury-enforced and that felt telling. With a much stronger squad and the team in a much more positive place than their opponents, Arsenal failed to take the initiative.
Thursday's match between Arsenal and Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium kicks off at 3 p.m. ET. Hearing his Liverpool team branded as dull and boring is "hard to hear,"says manager Arne Slot although the Dutchman says he cannot completely disagree with the criticism.
Arsenal and Liverpool engaged in a classic tale of two halves at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday, where the Premier League title hopefuls traded control without goals.
Arsenal wanted a statement, but there won’t be much more said about this 0-0 draw with Liverpool at all – outside the controversy surrounding Gabriel Martinelli ’s shameful moment. It was perhaps surprising that Arne Slot’ s players didn’t respond with even greater fury after he pushed a clearly injured Conor Bradley off the pitch.
In terms of the Premier League standings, the stakes are highest for Liverpool. Having played one game fewer than those sides around them, Slot’s team sit fourth in the table, nine points adrift of Aston Villa but just one ahead of fifth-placed Brentford. Sunderland, in 10th, are only four points away from Liverpool.

The Gunners have a six-point lead over Manchester City at the top of the table with 20 games of the season played, and haven’t lost at home in any competition since May.
