Liverpool will try to extend their Premier League winning streak against Arsenal at Anfield on Sunday afternoon. Andoni Iraola has stressed that his attention remains fixed on securing the three points as his side's latest performances have left him "wanting more." Following their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City, the Reds have claimed victory in their previous two league fixtures and sit in fourth position in the standings.
The Liverpool manager is calling upon the Anfield crowd to rally behind their side and transform the stadium into a fortress once more.
Their midweek Carabao Cup win over Chelsea, beating the Blues 6-5 on penalties after 1-1 draw, will certainly help. Liverpool have now won three straight games across all competitions at Anfield against Villarreal, Brighton and Chelsea.

Key man 'set to leave'
Alexis Mac Allister is reportedly 'set to leave' Liverpool at the conclusion of the campaign. Sky Sports Switzerland suggests that a new contract for the Argentine midfielder is not among the Reds' current plans as they look to rebuild their squad next summer.
This approach has rendered Mac Allister's departure in 2027 a 'concrete possibility' despite the 27-year-old's desire to stay at Anfield.
His representatives have reportedly already begun offering the midfielder to sides throughout La Liga, Serie A and the Saudi Pro League.
Mac Allister's deal extends until the summer of 2028, yet with a substantial squad restructuring anticipated next year, it remains possible that Liverpool could see him depart at the end of the campaign.
Big announcement sets up reunion
Liverpool are poised to reunite with Dirk Kuyt in the Champions League after he was appointed as the interim manager of Fenerbahce.
The beloved former winger, who registered 111 goal contributions during his successful spell at Anfield, will take charge of the Turkish outfit when they face the Reds in Turkey next week.
Kuyt also represented Fenerbahce during his playing career and has stepped in to replace Ismail Kartal following a string of disappointing results. The 2-1 defeat to fierce rivals Galatasaray brought an end to Kartal's tenure and signalled the start of Kuyt's.
The 46-year-old will take to the dugout for the first time against Goztepe this weekend before locking horns with his former club in the Champions League on Wednesday, November 4.
Kuyt is expected to remain at the helm until the international break, covering three fixtures in total.
