How to Watch Arsenal vs. Liverpool – FA Cup: Third Round | Stream Info, Start Time, Preview

LONDON, U.K. — While we are just in the third round of the 2023-24 FA Cup, we have a heavyweight matchup between two of the premier clubs in English football, as Arsenal takes on Liverpool on Sunday.

As the English Premier League clubs enter the FA Cup in the third round, it is a common occurrence to see top-tier clubs go at it right off the hop. We have already seen that this season. Crystal Palace and Everton are going to a replay after a draw on Friday, as Wolverhampton and Brentford did a similar feat last Saturday. Tottenham was able to get by Burnley, 1-0, on Saturday in their all-EPL clash.

However, Arsenal and Liverpool is a match that some might believe would come later in the season.

While the Reds might have a better record against the Gunners, historically, Arsenal has Liverpool’s number in FA Cup play, coming into Sunday with an 8-4-5 record. This will be the first meeting in FA Cup play since the Gunners knocked out the Reds in the fifth round in 2014 on their way to winning the championship.

However, Arsenal has struggled in FA Cup over the last few years, having not made it beyond the fourth round in the last three seasons. Even Liverpool was knocked out in the fourth round last season.

In league action, the two clubs have had different tales. Liverpool is currently top of the pops, having gone unbeaten in their last 13 EPL matches, and lead, of all clubs, Aston Villa by three points. Arsenal has slipped up lately, going winless in four of their last five contests. They sit tied for third in the table with Manchester City, five points back of the Reds.

Liverpool is in the middle of a busy stretch. One week removed from beating Newcastle in Premier League play, they play Arsenal on Sunday, following that cup with the first leg of their EFL Cup semifinal encounter with Fulham on Wednesday.

All-time, Liverpool is 94-64-82 against Arsenal.
