After Arsenal’s slip-up against Brentford, it is mathematically possible for Liverpool to win the Premier League next weekend.

But how?

It’s been a long road for Liverpool this season.

From the early weeks of the campaign, the signs were clear.

This team was serious.

Week after week, they found different ways to win.

From late goals to total dominance, they’ve looked like champions.

Now, with just a few games left, the title is within touching distance.

After Arsenal dropped points again, Liverpool fans are starting to count down the days.

The big question isn’t “can they win it?” – it’s “when?”

That shift in tone tells you everything about the shape of this title race.

The numbers are lining up.

The maths is getting clearer.

Everyone’s talking about one thing: next weekend.

But what exactly needs to happen for Liverpool to seal it on April 20th?

Let’s break it down.

Liverpool currently sit top of the table with 73 points after 31 games.

Arsenal are second with 63 points from 32 matches.

That’s a 10-point gap with a game in hand for the Reds.

Put simply, Liverpool need just nine more points from their final seven Premier League games to secure their second league title.

That would take them to 82 points.

Arsenal, even if they win all their remaining six games, can only get to 81.

Here’s the earliest it can be done.

Liverpool play Leicester City away on Sunday, April 20.

If they beat West Ham United this Sunday at Anfield, and Arsenal lose to Ipswich United on the same day as the Leicester match, the title is Liverpool’s.

That result would move Liverpool up to 79 points after the Leicester game, while Arsenal would remain on 63 and only be able to reach a maximum of 78.

If Arsenal don’t lose to Ipswich, the chase goes on.

But if Liverpool do their job and Arsenal slip, it’s all over.

And if it doesn’t happen next weekend?

That would set up a chance for Liverpool to secure the title at Anfield with a win over Tottenham on April 27.

Either way, the finish line is close.
