Pep Guardiola has already warned Liverpool of what they will face when they take on Arsenal this weekend.
The Reds face the Gunners in their next Premier League fixture this weekend. Liverpool take on Arsenal at Anfield on Sunday, looking for their first win in nearly a month.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have not tasted victory since the 7-0 hammering over Manchester United on March 5. Since then, Liverpool have lost three matches and drawn one, with the latter coming in the goalless stalemate with Chelsea in midweek.

Liverpool were beaten by Arsenal in the reverse fixture at the Emirates Stadium back in October, so the Reds and Klopp are already fully aware of what they will face on Sunday. But Guardiola has often spoken about the ability that the Gunners have at their disposal.
Arsenal are doing what Liverpool have done regularly over the last few years and challenging Man City for the Premier League title. The Gunners are currently eight points ahead of Guardiola’s side having played one game more.
Given Man City and Arsenal are at the top end of the table, Guardiola has often spoken about the London club. And his words back in January will serve as a warning to Liverpool going into this weekend’s fixture.
Guardiola told Sky Sports back in January: “We have to do it, but everyone is like relaxed. You know. But the Premier League doesn't wait, we have an opponent in Arsenal, they have the fire.
"Two decades. without winning the Premier League and every player knows they will go down in history.
“That’s how we felt when we won the first Premier League and break all the records and another one back-to-back, and two times back-to-back.
"In life and everything we have the fire inside, it’s not, we don’t have to ask anything, I just explained the reality that is so comfortable, and opponents don’t wait.
“You’re telling me how bad? No, we’re second in the league, so we are not 20 points behind."
