Liverpool retained their position at the top of the Premier League with a draw against Aston Villa that left both teams with mixed feelings. Despite taking an early lead through Mohamed Salah, Liverpool struggled to capitalize on several chances, including missed opportunities by Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota. A second-half equalizer from Trent Alexander-Arnold preserved Liverpool's unbeaten away streak, while Aston Villa, with a strong performance spurred by new signings, came close to snatching a late win. The result raises questions about Arsenal's chances as they trail Liverpool by eight points with a game in hand.
Trent Alexander-Arnold rattled in a second-half equaliser to maintain Liverpool's unbeaten away run in the Premier League but a point was frustrating given the substitute Darwin Nunez earlier missed a glaring chance to earn victory.
