Liverpool Are Officially Within One Point of Winning the Premier League
23/04/2025 23:22
One point earned by Liverpool—or dropped by second-place Arsenal—will officially secure the Reds their 20th domestic league title.
Liverpool's players gathered tonight to watch Crystal Palace take on Arsenal knowing if the Gunners lost, the Reds would secure the 2024-25 Premier League title. In the end Arsenal drew and Liverpool didn't get to celebrate. But they may have got something even better.
They got the chance to win it themselves at Anfield on the weekend.
Liverpool started the day with three as their magic number. Three points gained by Arne Slot's league leading or three points lost by chasers Arsenal over the final five Premier League matchweeks would make Liverpool your 2024-25 Premier League champions.
Liverpool end the day with one as their magic number. One point gained by Arne Slot's league leading or one point lost by chasers Arsenal will now wrap things up.
Liverpool have five games left to earn that point, starting with Tottenham on Sunday. Or Arsenal now have four games to drop more points. The Reds, though, will want to win the title in front of their home fans. Will want to win league title number twenty at Anfield.
The magic number is now one. One is the magic number.
One point and the Reds get to celebrate properly after being deprived of that when they won during the height of Covid. One more point and they climb back up on their perch alongside floundering historic rivals Manchester United with 20 domestic league titles.
Get ready for Sunday.
