How many points do Liverpool NEED to win the Premier League title?

Liverpool top the Premier League table - here's what they need to do to win the title.

It's been an unbelievable season for Liverpool under Arne Slot. The Dutchman has jumped into life at Anfield as though he's been around for a decade.

Things have been relaxed, they've been consistent and above all, they've been successful. Slot quickly got Liverpool to the top of the Premier League table and has kept them there.

What initially looked like a four-way fight soon became three. Manchester City have suffered a shocking decline, falling apart in ways a Pep Guardiola team never has.

They've attempted to fix that with a £200m January spend, though that hasn't been enough to get them back in the title race as of yet.

Chelsea appeared to be in the mix for a long time. They actually could have topped the table on Christmas day if not for a couple of dropped points.

They've now dropped out, too, leaving Liverpool with just Arsenal to contend with. But how do the Reds see off Mikel Arteta and co.?

Here's what they need to do.

How can Liverpool win the Premier League?

Liverpool can guarantee the Premier League title by finishing one point ahead of Arsenal's maximum points total.

As of Thursday 24th April, Arsenal can get a maximum of 79 points. That comes after drawing to Crystal Palace at home on Wednesday night. They have played 34 games and have earned 67 points.

Liverpool are on 79 points from 33 games after beating Leicester City away last Sunday, giving them a maximum points tally of 94.

That would be the sixth-highest points tally in Premier League history, falling just one short of Jose Mourinho's peak Chelsea team.

But Liverpool will not need that many this time around. 80 points guarantee the Reds win the title.

That means one point from a possible 15.

Should they avoid defeat in their next game against Tottenham, Liverpool will be champions on April 27 with four games to spare. Arsenal would have to give the Reds a guard of honour at Anfield, in fact.
