After an impressive win over Brighton this weekend, in which Ronald Araujo impressed again and its big-money attackers started to click, Liverpool looks to be heading in the right direction under Andoni Iraola.

And over the next few weeks, there is a real chance for Liverpool to continue building on the blocks that have already been put in place. Next up is a game with Arsenal at Anfield, which follows the Carabao Cup tie against Chelsea, and that should be another good indicator of where the Reds are up to.

Then there are some more winnable fixtures on the horizon that could set up an exciting period. But how does Liverpool's imminent schedule compare to the teams around it? We've taken a look.

Liverpool's next five league games: Arsenal (H), Crystal Palace (A), Man Utd (H), Everton (A), Sunderland (H)

Liverpool.com says: Every game in the Premier League is tricky, but if the Reds can get a result against Arsenal, confidence will soar.

This is a big week for Iraola, who has the potential to put his side in the title conversation during the November international break if things go well between now and then.

Manchester City's next five league games: Brighton (H), Nottingham Forest (A), Fulham (H), Arsenal (A), Leeds (H)

Liverpool.com says: We still have no idea what sanctions could be coming, but Enzo Maresca's men should win the majority of matches in this run. The question is whether Manchester City will be impacted by the potential penalties coming its way. This weekend showed that it is far from perfect with the defeat to Aston Villa.

Arsenal's next five league games: Liverpool (A), Hull (H), Newcastle (A), Man City (H), Brentford (A)

Liverpool.com says: This looks like a tough run for Mikel Arteta. Hull aside, there is an argument for Arsenal dropping points in any of these games.

Liverpool FC have launched their new home kit for the 2026/27, inspired by iconic adidas strip worn during the club's 1989/90 title-winning campaign.

The Gunners are still strong as a unit, but lack star quality in attack, and will be without Bukayo Saka for a few weeks. It will be an interesting acid test.

Chelsea's next five league games: Man Utd (H), Sunderland (A), Leeds (H), Nottingham Forest (A), Crystal Palace (H)
