Reasons why Liverpool will seal the Premier League 2019-20 title
Liverpool are on a sublime run in the Premier League 2019-20 season. The league leaders are on a rampant mode and have gone unbeaten in 16 games this season. With 46 points under their belt, the Reds have opened a huge gap over their rivals. And it looks almost impossible to stop Jurgen Klopp's men now. We analyze the same.
Liverpool have maintained the momentum from last season
Liverpool have maintained the ascendancy from the previous season when they finished second. They had amassed 97 points and finished behind champions Manchester City (98). Notably, they lost just one game last season. This term, the Reds are yet to lose a single match. Notably, the side has won 24 of their past 25 EPL matches which includes Saturday's 3-0 win against Bournemouth.
Liverpool have lost just once since last season
Since last season, Liverpool have won a staggering 45 league matches out of 54. They have drawn eight and lost just once. The side is riding high on confidence and the players know how to stitch an unbeaten run at ease. Since 2018-19, Liverpool have cracked a code of how to get the job done. This deadly run makes Liverpool outright favorites.
Liverpool have a 14-point gap over Manchester City
Manchester City lost the derby against Manchester United on Saturday to notch their fourth defeat of the campaign. The champions have 32 points from 16 games and trail Liverpool by 14 at the moment. No team in history has ever overturned a 14-point deficit. This has somehow ended City's charge for a third successive title under Pep Guardiola. City haven't been at their best.
Klopp has the depth in his squad to dominate matches
The December fixtures are tight and Liverpool have a tough road ahead given their fixtures across competitions. However, Klopp has the desired depth in his squad. He rotated the squad well in the last two EPL matches and got brilliant results. That will be the theme for the Reds as the season progresses. If players can defy injuries, the title is done and dusted.
