Kicking off at 7.30pm away to Nottingham Forest, the Gunners were held to a 0-0 draw at the City Ground.

Liverpool and Arsenal are now afforded a weekend off after suffering premature FA Cup exits before returning to Champions League action away to Paris Saint-Germain and PSV Eindhoven respectively.

Their Premier League campaigns will then continue the weekend of March 8-9 with the Reds well placed to extend their lead further - albeit perhaps only temporarily.

Liverpool host struggling Southampton on Saturday, March 8 before Arsenal travel to Manchester United on Sunday, March 9.

With Liverpool in League Cup final action against Newcastle United on Sunday, March 16, Arsenal host Chelsea in their outstanding Premier League fixture.

Consequently, the true gap between the title rivals will become a whole lot clearer in little over two weeks’ time, when, heading into April, both sides will then have nine league fixtures left to play.

But for now, the Reds have played 28 matches while the Gunners have played 27 times.

And with the gap growing even further on Wednesday night, it is inevitable that supporters will now cautiously be looking at calendars, fixture lists and league tables, before dusting off their GCSE maths skills and trying to work out when the Premier League title could actually be won.

As things stand, if Arsenal won all 11 of their remaining fixtures, they will finish with 87 points.

That would include beating Liverpool at Anfield on the weekend of May 10-11, and ending a 13-year hoodoo that has not seen them win at the ground since September 2012.

Should the Reds win all 10 of their remaining fixtures, they will finish the season on 97 points, with the Gunners then limited to a maximum haul of 84 points.

If the table-toppers lost to Arsenal, they could finish with 94 points, while a draw would see their highest possible points totals standing at 95 and 85 points respectively.

So, as things stand, Liverpool need 88 points to win the Premier League.

Granted, that comes accompanied by the caveat of an injury crisis that has significantly limited their attacking options.

But with Manchester United and Chelsea lurking in their next two matches, it would not be a surprise if the gap between Liverpool and Arsenal continued to grow and the date they could mathematically clinch the title be brought forward further as a result.

The Gunners also travel to Everton, face further London derbies with Fulham, Brentford and Crystal Palace, and welcome Bournemouth and Newcastle United to the Emirates in the final weeks of the season.

The Reds still face tough Premier League fixtures of their own, though, including a Merseyside derby clash with Everton at Anfield days before the Blues host Arsenal.

Tottenham Hotspur will also travel to Anfield, while Liverpool face trips to the likes of Fulham and Brighton & Hove Albion in the final weeks of the season.

With both Liverpool and Arsenal also still in the Champions League, and facing the possibility of facing off in the semi-finals at the end of April and start of May, they could even end up locking horns three times in just 11 days.
