Liverpool get top billing on Match of the Day tonight after thrashing Arsenal to extend their lead at the summit of the Premier League.

The Gunners opened the lead after just 11 minutes through Ainsley Maitland-Niles but Roberto Firmino scored twice in two minutes to put the home side in front.

Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah scored before the break to give the Reds a commanding half-time lead before Firimino sealed his hat-trick from the penalty spot to complete a comprehensive 5-1 victory.

The win sees Liverpool open up a nine point lead at the summit of the league after Tottenham threw away the chance to close the gap against Wolves.

The north Londoners led at half-time through Harry Kane's superb strike but conceded three times in the closing 18 minutes.
