Liverpool are just one step away from clinching the 2024/25 Premier League title, but Tottenham Hotspur could stand in their way this Sunday.
The Reds edged closer to glory last weekend with a narrow 1-0 victory over Leicester City, thanks to Trent Alexander-Arnold’s decisive goal — a strike that not only secured three points but also condemned Leicester to relegation.
With a commanding 13-point lead at the top of the table, Arne Slot’s side could have been officially crowned champions if Arsenal had faltered midweek. However, despite a dominant win over Ipswich earlier, Arsenal dropped crucial points again, drawing 2-2 with Crystal Palace after twice surrendering their lead.
Mikel Arteta had previously vowed to fight for the title while mathematically possible, but even he has begun to concede that the trophy is slipping away.
Now, with celebrations on Merseyside poised to ignite, Tottenham Hotspur could play the role of spoilers. If Spurs can manage a result against Liverpool on Sunday, it might delay the inevitable — at least for a few more days.
Regardless, it would take a monumental collapse for Liverpool to miss out on their 20th English league title and their second in five seasons.
All eyes now turn to Sunday’s clash: Can Tottenham delay Liverpool’s Premier League title celebration, or will Arne Slot and his men finally lift the trophy in front of their fans?
