23 December 2023 at 20:27 Arsenal tops the table when Christmas rings in On paper, Liverpool against Arsenal was a little pre-Christmas treat before Christmas rings in across the long country. Arsenal centre-back Gabriel soared like the eponymous angel, propelling the visitors into the lead. Arsenal and Norway captain Martin Ødegaard served his Brazilian team-mate and could record another goal assist, but it was not going to be enough at Anfield on Christmas Eve. Because Mohamed Salah would have none of this and after barely 30 minutes played, the Egyptian served up a cracker of a score. A close and even match ended with the points being shared at Anfield. A pitch Arsenal have had major problems on over the years. The Gunners had not won against Liverpool away from home since 2012, and after the game on Christmas Eve this remains unchanged. In 16 out of 30 cases in Premier League history, the league leader on Christmas Eve has also peaked at the end of the season. Arsenal topped the table when pork chops and ribs were consumed in slightly too large quantities last season as well, but then finished in second place behind Manchester City. Midway through the first half, Liverpool’s left-back Kostas Tsimikas crashed into coach Jürgen Klopp after a running duel with Bukayo Saka, and was left lying down. The Greek left the field while holding his collarbone.
