A closer look at Gabriel Martinelli's prolific record vs Liverpool
The Brazilian loves playing against the Reds.
Gabriel Martinelli continued his strong form against Liverpool by scoring a header in Arsenal's 2–2 draw at Anfield at the weekend, taking his tally to six goals and two assists against the Reds.
Since arriving in the Premier League in 2019, Martinelli has consistently troubled Liverpool's defence, particularly giving Trent Alexander-Arnold a tough time down the flank.
His first big showing came in a 2019 Carabao Cup match, where he scored twice in a thrilling 5–5 draw, earning high praise from Jurgen Klopp, who was manager at the time.
In the 2022/23 season, Martinelli played a decisive role in Arsenal's 3–2 win, scoring early and assisting another goal and continued to shine in their away fixture that season with another goal and assist.
The Brazilian struck again in the return fixture at the Emirates, capitalising on a defensive error before adding a second late on to secure victory.
Most recently, his header helped Arsenal recover from two goals down at Anfield, confirming his status as a consistent threat whenever he faces Liverpool.
