Luis Diaz’s first-half goal (18’) and Virgil van Dijk’s second-half addition (89’) helped Liverpool win three crucial points at Anfield on Sunday.
Liverpool left-back Andrew Robertson’s own goal in the 86th minute against West Ham United was a shocker for the home fans. But the Dutchman scored a crucial goal for the Reds and collected three points.
Arne Slot’s side, having 76 points in 32 PL games, are 13 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal. With six games left in the 2024-25 English top-flight season, LFC needs to win just two more games to have 82 points as the Gunners can get 81 points at max.
In the PL, Arsenal’s next two games are against Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace. The Arsenal fans see these two games as winnable.
It tells that Liverpool’s next two matches against Leicester City (away) and Tottenham Hotspur (home) are crucial.
As the game versus Spurs, on 27 April, is at home, Liverpool have a chance to celebrate the mega moment with their fanbase.
Slot was impressed with goalkeeper Alisson Becker’s performance against the Hammers.
“Alisson probably had his best game of the season today,” he said.
Meanwhile, Arsenal had a 1-1 draw with Brentford at the Emirates Stadium (last Saturday).
