Liverpool Edging Closer to Glory After Arsenal Slip at Goodison Park
Liverpool’s pursuit of a record-equalling 20th league title took a major step forward on Saturday after Arsenal stumbled in a 1-1 draw against Everton at Goodison Park.
The Gunners dropped two crucial points, leaving them 11 behind the league leaders. With a game in hand, Arne Slot’s Liverpool now have the chance to open up a commanding lead at the top.
Arsenal had taken the lead through Leandro Trossard in the first half and looked in control, but a controversial second-half penalty gave Everton the chance to equalise—and they took it.
When Could Liverpool Seal the Title?
The result is a damaging blow to Mikel Arteta’s title hopes, drastically tightening the margin for error in their final fixtures. Arsenal now sit on 72 points after 32 games, while Liverpool have 73 points with eight matches left.
Victory over Fulham tomorrow could push Liverpool’s lead to 14 points, placing them firmly in control with just seven games left for Arsenal.
If the Gunners win all their remaining matches, they can still finish with a maximum of 83 points. Liverpool, meanwhile, need only 11 points from their final eight fixtures to lift the trophy—just eight if they defeat Fulham, thanks to their superior goal difference.
That scenario could see Liverpool clinch the title as early as April 27, when they host Tottenham at Anfield.
Focused on the Goal, Grounded in Reality
Despite their advantage, Liverpool fans are likely to keep their celebrations on hold. Memories of past near-misses—particularly against Manchester City—will ensure a cautious approach.
Slot’s men still face some serious tests ahead, including upcoming clashes with Fulham, Spurs, Chelsea, and Arsenal—who they’ll host in their final home game of the season.
But if the Reds maintain their current form, the title could be theirs before Arsenal even arrive at Anfield—raising the tantalising possibility of a guard of honour from the Gunners on Liverpool’s home turf.
“Arne Slot’s Anfield Era Begins in Spectacular Fashion”
Arne Slot’s debut season in charge has been nothing short of outstanding. The Dutchman has elevated Liverpool’s game, steering them through an almost impeccable Premier League campaign—registering just one defeat, 22 victories, and 7 draws. Impressively, he accomplished this without a major squad overhaul, with Federico Chiesa being the sole marquee addition.
Though the Reds faced setbacks in cup competitions—falling to Newcastle in the League Cup final and exiting the Champions League at the hands of PSG—a Premier League triumph would more than compensate, signalling a spectacular start to Slot’s reign at Anfield.
