Liverpool takes 13-point lead ahead of EPL standings
Liverpool is on a roll and is now 13 points ahead of Arsenal after winning the game against West Ham at Anfield, England. Arsenal, on the other hand, ended their latest match against Brentford at the Emirates Stadium in a draw. That puts Liverpool at 76 points and Arsenal at 63 points, as of writing.
Can Arsenal make a miraculous comeback?
EPL clubs have only six matches remaining in the season, leaving a maximum of 18 points up for grabs. For Arsenal to overtake Liverpool, they need to win every remaining game, including their crucial head-to-head clash on May 11. Given their current form and their focus on the UEFA Champions League, that scenario seems unlikely.
Mikel Arteta has his eyes set on the UEFA Champions League silverware, the trophy that Arsenal has not yet won in history. Meanwhile, Arne Slot is free of other obligations, allowing his team to focus entirely on the EPL 2024/25 title. These motivations directly affect their performances in the competitions, so Arsenal is unlikely to make a comeback.
Arne Slot to win the EPL title in his first season
What makes this season even more exciting is that it's Arne Slot’s first season with Liverpool. Jürgen Klopp, who managed the team for nearly a decade, passed the reins to Slot after the 2023/24 season. Now, Slot is steering the team toward Premier League glory, and fans are witnessing this new chapter unfold.
