When can Liverpool win the Premier League title? | OneFootball

Liverpool suffered a set-back in their hopes of securing the Premier League title swiftly as they failed to capitalise on rivals Everton holding Arsenal to a 1-1 draw at Goodison Park.

The Reds suffered only their second defeat of the season to remain on 73 points through 31 games, still needing 11 more points to make mathematically certain of the title.

Arsenal’s draw at Everton means Mikel Arteta’s side are only able to obtain a maximum of 83 points, with seven games left to play.

The truth is that Liverpool are edging towards another top-flight title – but when is the earliest that they could clinch number 20?

When could Liverpool win the Premier League?

Liverpool have only lost twice in the Premier League this season and are averaging 2.35 points per game this season. Four more wins would be enough to win the title, even if Arsenal win all of their games.

If Arsenal do not slip up, the triumph will not come in April. Liverpool’s defeat to Fulham on Sunday means they cannot secure the title before the end of the month, with the club next hosting West Ham on Sunday 13 April. That’s followed by games against Leicester on Sunday 20 April or Tottenham on 27 April - before facing Chelsea on Sunday 4 May, which could be the game where Arne Slot’s side get over the line.

It also looks likely that Liverpool could build a mathematically unassailable lead before facing the Gunners - leaving Arsenal potentially having to roll out the guard of honour for the Reds on 11 May.
