Match of the Day 2

2010/11

15/08/2010

Duration: 50 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Two ScotlandLatest broadcast: on BBC Two England

Colin Murray presents highlights of the day's big game in the Premier League, as Liverpool host Arsenal at Anfield. It is Roy Hodgson's first league game in charge of the Reds following his switch from Fulham. The Englishman worked wonders at Craven Cottage on a limited budget. However, expectations at Anfield are far higher, even though the club missed out on Champions League qualification last season.

Arsenal's third-place finish in 2009/10 meant a fifth consecutive season without silverware for manager Arsene Wenger. The Gunners won all three meetings against Liverpool last season, including a 2-1 win at Anfield, when Andrey Arshavin got the winner. This fixture has produced plenty of goals in recent years – Arshavin netted four times as the sides drew 4-4 in 2009. Show less
