For only the second time in Arne Slot's reign, Liverpool have fallen to defeat in the Premier League.

This time it is Fulham who have claimed the scalp of the Reds at Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon.

After 38 minutes Liverpool found themselves 3-1 down to their hosts, the first time they have experienced a two-goal deficit in the first season their head coach has been in charge.



Luis Diaz was able to make a substitute's impact and reduce the arreas before Harvey Eliott rattled the bar.

But despite the defeat to Marco Silva's side, Liverpool still hold a healthy 11-point advantage at the top of the table.

With 21 points to play for they can therefore achieve a maximum total of 94.

With 21 points to play for they can therefore achieve a maximum total of 94.

Meanwhile Arsenal sit on 62 points having played the same number of games as the Reds.

They have 21 points available in their remaining matches too, meaning their maximum total can be 83.

As a result, Slot's men require 11 more points to be mathematically crowned champions of England for the 20th time in the club's history.

Should the Reds and Mikel Arteta's side pick up maximum points in their upcoming games then the earlier Liverpool could win the title would be against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, May 4.

Were Liverpool not to have won the Premier League title on or before the above date, they risk prolonging the matter further as one week after the game in the capital, Arsenal are visitors to Anfield on Sunday, May 11 in what will be the third-from-last match of the 2024/25 season.
