Overview

  • Trent Alexander-Arnold returned from injury to score a 76th-minute winner for Liverpool against Leicester City, moving the team one win away from a record-equalling 20th Premier League title.
  • Leicester City's defeat confirmed their relegation, marking their second drop to the Championship in three seasons and extending their home goal drought to nine consecutive matches.
  • Arsenal's earlier 4-0 win over Ipswich delayed Liverpool's title celebration, with the Gunners' midweek match against Crystal Palace potentially influencing the timing of Liverpool's coronation.
  • Liverpool can secure the title next weekend with a victory over Tottenham at Anfield, regardless of Arsenal's midweek result, offering fans the chance to witness the title win in person for the first time since 2020.
  • Ipswich Town, sitting 15 points adrift with five games remaining, is on the brink of relegation, likely joining Leicester and Southampton in returning to the Championship.
