Liverpool has been one of the consistent teams in the 2024-2025 season. It has been playing some great football in the Premier League, now with a shot at its 2nd Premier League title.
Liverpool might be the Premier League winner, right in the next week or so, but there are some permutations and combinations that need to fall right into place. Let’s know in detail what these permutations are.
How Many Points Does Liverpool Need?
Liverpool is possible to be the Premier League winner if the team in red can get 3 points from its next 5 matches.
Looking at its current form and goals scoring spree, that must not be too hard. This probability was made stronger when Arsenal went on to defeat Ipswich Town, and Liverpool itself beat Leicester City.

Liverpool Standings and Arsenal Misery
Fans might be well aware that Liverpool has an easy chance to win the title, but Arsenal also sits right behind. Currently, Liverpool has 79 points from 33 matches and sits right at the top.
Even though Arsenal sits second in the table, it has a 13-point deficit and only owns 66 points. There is no doubt Arsenal is playing good football, but the Reds are hard to catch.
What makes things worse for Arsenal is the fact that it will only reach 81 points even if it wins all of its matches, while Liverpool will have 82 if it wins only a match. The odds seem to favor Liverpool heavily.
What Happens if Arsenal Loses?
Liverpool will be more likely to win the Premier League if Arsenal loses its next match. Arsenal is all set to play Crystal Palace, so if it loses that match, it will remain on 66, and catching up to 88 will be mathematically impossible.
What Happens if Arsenal Wins?
Well, if Arsenal wins the match, it could be a slight headache for Liverpool and its fans. If Arsenal wins over Crystal Palace, Liverpool needs to win too.
In the match that will take place on 27th April, Liverpool will have to beat Tottenham Hotspur, which will take the team to untouchable heights.
An Important Week Coming Up
All of the fuss and the interest have been around the points table. As Leicester City is relegated from the Premier League, the doors are open for Liverpool and Arsenal to make a huge stride.
Liverpool, at the moment, is right at the top with 79 points and +44 goal difference, while Arsenal sits on the second spot with 66 points and +34 goal difference. Arsenal will have to pull off something unlikely to displace Liverpool.
