18 min: As soon as Arsenal scored that opener, they took their foot off the gas. The intensity dropped and that has allowed Liverpool to gain momentum.

They could've built on that lead with the way they were playing but instead they have let it slip and now they are under pressure.

16 min: Ramos plays a long ball straight through the heart of the Arsenal midfield and defence to Olsson, who eases her way past Williamson before slotting her shot into the bottom-left corner.

I can't help but think Williamson could've done better there. She appeared to let Olsson run straight through.

Olsson levels things up!

That was some poor defending from Arsenal.

14 min: An interesting replay has just been shown from that Arsenal goal. As the cross was sent in, Smith appeared to pull the shirt of a Liverpool player, stopping them from intercepting the ball. That allowed Russo to get the shot away.

If we had VAR in the league, that could have been disallowed.

12 min: Arsenal have settled a bit more following that goal. Liverpool are being given a bit more space to play.

9 min: Fox makes a good run to the byline before playing a low cross into the box, where she finds Russo on the penalty spot. The striker – who has started the game in the No10 position – then drills her shot into the bottom-left corner with her first touch.

A great start for Arsenal.

Alessia Russo breaks the deadlock for Arsenal!

The Gunners have been piling on the pressure so far and it has paid off.

6 min: This match has not been short of action so far! Smith is next to run through on goal but blasts her effort wide and over the crossbar from a tight angle.

5 min: Huge chance for the visitors as Baum goes for goal inside the box, but her effort takes a huge deflection off the shoulder of Kerr and rattles the crossbar!

4 min: Arsenal head straight back down to the other end of the pitch as Baum shrugs off Bernabé before winning a corner.

3 min: Endemann looks to send a cross towards the back post from the right but the ball runs behind.

2 min: Arsenal drive forward early and look to pile on the pressure. They move the ball around the edge of the Liverpool box before Baum makes a run to the byline, but the ball runs behind for a goal kick.

We're under way at Anfield!

That period of silence was impeccably observed. Now, on to kick-off.

The teams are out and kick-off is just a few moments away. But first, everybody will observe a period of silence for Remembrance Sunday.

It will be interesting to see today if Alessia Russo starts as the lone striker, or in the No10 position.

Renée Slegers has been persevering with Russo in the 10 for much of the season so far. I do wonder if that could be a reason for Arsenal's lack of goals. There is absolutely no doubt that the 27-year-old is at her best when she's playing as a No9.

Hello and welcome to coverage of Liverpool v Arsenal in the Women's Super League. Both teams are in desperate need of a win as they look to climb up the WSL table, with the Reds in 11th and the Gunners in eighth.

Liverpool come into this game having not managed a league win since September 27 – and last weekend's heavy 4-1 loss to West Ham will be on their minds.

Meanwhile, following a poor start to the season, the Gunners enjoyed two successive wins against Tottenham and Benfica but saw their form drop once more in a 1-1 draw against Aston Villa. Renée Slegers now finds herself under increasing pressure, meaning a win today is vital.

Kick-off is at 12pm GMT – join me!
