When can Liverpool secure the 2024-25 Premier League title?

Liverpool’s march to the Premier League title seems inevitable after they increased their lead at the top of the table to 15 points.

No team in English top-flight history, going all the way back to 1888-89, has been this far clear at this stage of the season and not won the title.

The Reds have only lost once in the league all season – and beat Southampton 3-1 on Saturday. Meanwhile, second-placed Arsenal have dropped points in each of their past three games – including their 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday.

“Liverpool will look at it and think ‘Arsenal have almost given up the title race’,” former Manchester United captain Roy Keane said on Sky Sports.

And former Arsenal midfielder Paul Merson added: “I will be saying now that Arsenal need to concentrate to get into the Premier League top four.

“Liverpool are too far away. They have only lost one game all season. [The title race] is over.”

Nottingham Forest are third, four points behind Arsenal, and Chelsea another two points further back in fourth.

Manchester City, who have won the past four Premier League titles, sit fifth after losing 1-0 at Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
