Arsenal defender Takehiro Tomiyasu says the home support will be key today against Liverpool.

Tomiyasu is feeling confident ahead of visit of Liverpool on Sunday and feels the Arsenal faithful can play an important role once again.

He said: “Liverpool is still Liverpool. Of course it will not be an easy game.

“As I said everyone needs to be helping the team. But we are better than last season and we are confident to beat them. We have no fear.

"We are playing at home with 60,000 people behind us. We need to try and get three points.

“To be fair, the atmosphere of the dressing room is very good. We are confident and we are top of the League. We are ready to beat them. We have got a lot of games in October until the World Cup, so every player has to be ready to play, to help the team."
