## Key points

- Liverpool arrive on a five-game winning run under Iraola.
- A win would put them three points behind Arsenal.
- Rotation and a more direct, intense style are shaping Liverpool’s progress.

## Summary

Liverpool have won nine and drawn three of their 13 matches under Andoni Iraola, and head into Sunday’s meeting with Arsenal on a five-game winning run. The match will test how far Liverpool have progressed and could reshape the title gap: a win would put them three points behind Arsenal, while a defeat would leave them nine points adrift.

Anfield’s atmosphere has lifted as results have improved, with recent wins over Brighton and Chelsea adding to the momentum. Iraola has made at least three changes to the starting line-up in nine consecutive games and plans to keep rotating as Liverpool manage a demanding schedule. His side are also playing more long balls than last season, while averaging more high pressures and sprints per league game.
