Liverpool will secure Prem League title if they win AND Arsenal lose tonight

  /  NuclearSA

There are two spotlight battles tonight, with Liverpool visit Leicester to face the host and Arsenal go away to fight Ipswich Town.

How can Liverpool be crowned champions?

The equation is simple. Arsenal go first on Sunday when they play Ipswich. If they do suffer a shock loss at Portman Road then Liverpool get the chance to make more history. If they can follow an Arsenal loss with a win over Leicester they will be champions.

A draw for Arsenal will be enough to keep the fight going so the Reds will need the Tractor Boys, who look set to face the drop, to pull out a serious performance. Ipswich have only won four times all season, so they are rank outsiders to beat the north Londoners.

Liverpool would duly love the opportunity to celebrate the title in front of their home fans, which could yet happen. It was well documented that their success in 2020 came after a Manchester City loss - and when lockdown was still in play meaning celebrations were not what they could've been.

Despite the possibilities that exist Slot insists there is no thought of the title this Sunday - only on beating Leicester. He said: "My thoughts are not on that at all. My thoughts are, as always, on Leicester and on our team: how to improve, what can we do better.

"We couldn’t do many things better in the first half against West Ham [United] but we could do a lot of things better in the second half. So, during the start of the week we have worked on that a lot and now we are working towards Leicester. One game at a time and influence the one we can influence, and that’s the Leicester game."

If the title is not decided in this round, the title chance will be postponed to the 34th round of the Premier League on the 23rd, April.
