The Gunners moved to within two points of the Reds on Tuesday night as Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka's goals ensured a 2-1 victory over Nottingham Forest. Jurgen Klopp's side can restore the five-point gap tonight when they host Chelsea at Anfield.
While Mauricio Pochettino's men have struggled this season, they are unbeaten in their last three matches and Liverpool will be keen not to underestimate them. Discussing the unfolding title race on TNT Sports, Odegaard set his team a huge challenge if they wish to catch the Reds at the top.
"All the games we play are big games, we have to win every game basically," he explained. "This league is so competitive, but we love it. We can't wait for the next one [vs Liverpool].
"It's another big one coming up. We just have to keep going, keep working hard and we'll see."
Of course, Arsenal are not Liverpool's only title challengers this year. Manchester City also remain firmly in the race and they have a game in hand over the Reds.
City also return to Premier League action this evening when they host struggling Burnley at the Etihad Stadium. Should Liverpool be victorious on Wednesday night, Klopp's team will restore their five-point advantage at the top of the table ahead of the trip to the Emirates Stadium this Sunday
