Liverpool moved within six points of the Premier League title after a 2-1 win over West Ham. With Arsenal trailing, the Reds could clinch the crown next weekend. Here’s the complete scenario on how Liverpool can win the title next Sunday.
Liverpool took a massive step toward clinching the Premier League title with a gritty 2-1 win over West Ham at Anfield on Sunday. The Reds won the match thanks to a late header from captain Virgil van Dijk. They are now just six points away from mathematically sealing the title, and fans are already excited about a record-equalling 20th English top-flight crown.
The match wasn’t without drama. Luis Diaz opened the scoring early for Liverpool, but a late own goal by Andy Robertson in the 86th minute gave West Ham a glimmer of hope. However, Van Dijk’s powerful header just moments later ensured Jurgen Klopp’s side walked away with all three points under their belt.
The result keeps Liverpool comfortably at the top of the table, now 13 points clear of second-placed Arsenal, with only six matches left in the season.
