Liverpool is on the brink of Premier League glory, and the title will be wrapped up this weekend if the Reds win against Leicester and Arsenal loses at Ipswich.

Despite suggestions that Liverpool has been going through a tricky patch of late, Arne Slot's men have actually won nine of their last 11 league games, opening up a virtually insurmountable lead at the top of the table.

Last weekend's dramatic 2-1 win over West Ham moved the Reds 13 points clear of Arsenal with just 18 points left to play for.



It looked as though Liverpool wasn't going to take advantage of Arsenal's draw with Brentford a day earlier when West Ham equalized through an Andy Robertson own-goal in the 86th-minute.

Liverpool now needs to pick up just six more points from its remaining games to guarantee the title — even if Arsenal was to win each of its remaining six games.

There is also the possibility that Liverpool could wrap the title up as early as today, although that would require Arsenal to lose against the doomed Ipswich Town and Liverpool to beat the equally hopeless Leicester, which is markedly more likely.

We know we have to win two more games [to guarantee the title], which has been on 32 occasions difficult enough for us," Slot said

“First win two and that is the only thing we should focus on, and each week try to improve more and more to give us a better chance to win a game next week against Leicester.

“Everybody can talk (about Leicester) but what I saw is for the first time in 11 games Leicester scored two goals and got a result (2-2 at Brighton on Saturday)

That is our only focus – winning a game of football.”
