Liverpool have just 10 games left to end the 2024-25 Premier League season, while Arsenal have 11. After the most recent victory against Newcastle, Opta rated The Kop as having a 98.8% chance of winning the tournament. Only one team in Premier League history has lost such a significant lead - Manchester United were caught up by Arsenal in the 1997-1998 season.
However, coach Arne Slot remained silent when asked about Liverpool winning the Premier League. Instead, he wants to focus on the Champions League round-of-16 against Paris St Germain.
"I don't know because I don't think that way. I think about PSG. I watched them face Man City. I am impressed with the quality they have. I think they are also having a good run like us.
They have not lost for a long time. They are doing very well. Therefore, my focus is on PSG. I will forget the Premier League table until we meet Southampton," Slot said when asked about his chances of winning the Premier League.
Both Liverpool and Arsenal are now on a year-and-a-half break until the next Premier League match. Notably, in the whole month of March, The Kop will only have one home match at Anfield against bottom team Southampton.
So, when is the earliest time Liverpool can touch the 20th Premier League title? And can the situation be decided when Arsenal visit Anfield on May 10?
The earliest day Liverpool can win the championship?
In the best scenario for Liverpool, Arsenal will lose the next 4 matches against Man United (away), Chelsea (home), Fulham (away) and Everton (away). Meanwhile, Liverpool need to win their next 3 matches against Southampton (away), Everton (away) and Fulham (away). The Reds will then win the championship when they visit Craven Cottage on 5 April.
What would happen if the current gap remained the same?
If both teams continue to win and maintain the current 13-point gap, Liverpool will have a chance to win the championship when facing Tottenham at Anfield on April 26.
Can Liverpool win the Premier League when Arsenal visit Anfield?
Yes, there is one scenario where that happens, depending on the outcome. The condition was that Liverpool had to be 7 points ahead of Arsenal by the end of that match.
When will Liverpool win the cup?
If Liverpool win the Premier League as expected, they will be awarded the trophy after the final home match of the season against Crystal Palace on May 25.
Liverpool fans could not celebrate the Premier League title in 2020 with their players due to COVID-19-related limitations. Therefore, The Kop is expected to parade by convertible bus with the trophy, although this will only be confirmed after they win the championship.
If the Anfield team wins the Premier League this season, they will be on par with arch-rivals Man United for 20 national championship titles.
