Referee announced for Arsenal vs Liverpool 2024/25 | Same as ref for last season’s game

The referee for GW9’s marquee Arsenal vs Liverpool clash has been officially announced, and it’s Anthony Taylor. Interestingly, Taylor was also the ref when the two sides met last season at the same venue- a fixture the Gunners won 3-1 thanks to some rare Alisson mistakes. He was also in charge of this fixture in 2019/20 (3-1 win for LFC at home) and 2014/15 (4-1 win for AFC at home)

Interestingly, Taylor is yet to referee a game involving Arsenal in the current 2024/25 season, but has already had the whistle for two league games involving Arne Slot’s Liverpool- their 3-0 win over Manchester United in Week 3, and the 2-1 triumph at Wolves in Week 6.
