Latest Liverpool news and gossip as Arne Slot and Co. have been handed a fresh premier League title prediction

Liverpool have been handed a fresh verdict in the race to win the Premier League title this season. The Reds dropped two points at the weekend as they were held to a 2-2 draw at home to Fulham.

Goals from Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota cancelled out strikes from Andreas Pereira and Rodrigo Muniz as Liverpool earned a draw after Andy Robertson’s red card. The draw means that the Reds now have just a two-point lead over Chelsea at the top of the table but do have a game in hand, as well as a nine-point advantage over Manchester City.

Arne Slot’s team are in Carabao Cup action against Southampton in midweek before returning to Premier League duties at the weekend against Tottenham Hotspur. After another dramatic round of top-flight action, it seems that Liverpool’s chances of winning the league title have been predicted once again.
