The Premier League title race could reach boiling point on Wednesday night, as Liverpool look to close to within a single point of Manchester City - a remarkable turnaround given a double-digit points lead for the reigning champions not long ago.
Arsenal have their own objectives at hand though as they host the Reds, namely that of ensuring they secure a top-four finish and a return to the Champions League.
