Gabriel Martinelli shares which Premier League stadium he enjoys playing at the most away from the Emirates.

The Brazilian has endured a mixed start to life in North London this season and has found himself in and out of the starting line-up so far.

Mikel Arteta was questioned for excluding Martinelli, and the Spaniard has stuck to his guns with Leandro Trossard starting on the left flank in recent weeks.

While Martinelli has enjoyed his success this season on the road, particularly in Arsenal’s win against Athletic Bilbao, he has now named his favourite stadium to travel to in the Premier League, and it belongs to a title rival.

Gabriel Martinelli names Anfield as his favourite away stadium

In an interview with ESPN, Martinelli was asked his favourite away stadium to play in, and the Arsenal forward wasted no time in naming Anfield.

“I like to play Anfield,” Martinelli said.

“Yeah, that’s intense. What’s that like?” The host asked.

“The atmosphere is amazing and the game is always, you know, end to end,” Martinelli said.

“Yeah. Intense. I’ve never been to Anfield, so I’m curious like is it really how people describe it? Is it really that is it scary? Is it intense? Is it loud?” Martinelli was asked.

“I mean, I wouldn’t say scary, but it’s nice, you know, to play there and feel the atmosphere,” Martinelli said.

The last time Arsenal travelled to face Liverpool, they were thwarted by an “incredible” Dominik Szoboszlai free kick that earned the champions a 1-0 win on the day.

Martinelli produced an underwhelming display in what proved to be his last Premier League start so far despite scoring a 93rd-minute equaliser off the bench against Manchester City.

While the Gunners have since overtaken Liverpool at the top of the league table, their record at Anfield leaves a lot to be desired, they have not won a league match on Merseyside since 2012.

Gabriel Martinelli has an impressive record against Liverpool

Indeed, Martinelli’s performance in his last trip to the champions has somewhat derailed his progress this season.

However, his display on the day was not reminiscent of his usual impact as the Brazilian has a proven track record of delivering against Liverpool.

The 24-year-old has scored six goals and provided two assists in 13 outings across all competitions when facing the Reds.

His most notable impact came in the 2022/23 campaign when he recorded a goal and an assist in both the 3-2 win at the Emirates and the 2-2 draw at Anfield.
