Liverpool were handed a huge boost after an injury-stricken Arsenal suffered a shocking 0-1 defeat against West Ham United at home on February 22nd, 2025.

Arsenal are now placed second at the table, having accumulated 53 points in 26 games. Liverpool, on the other hand, will now enjoy an 11-point lead at the top with 64 points in 27 matches. 

Liverpool fans have almost started celebrating their potential Premier League title after five years, raising a question as well, how many more points Liverpool need to win the title?

The equation to the coveted Premier League title for Liverpool

Arsenal, the second-placed team have 12 matches left to play in the league this season. If the Mikel Arteta-coached side can win every other remaining match, the maximum number of points they can achieve is 89. 

Interestingly, the Arne Slot-led team could reach the same total in just nine games if they win their next nine games consecutively. For context, Liverpool have 11 more games to play this season.

The Gunners and the Reds will also meet on May 10th, the 36th matchday of the season. This could be a face-off that can potentially turn out as the title-decider only if the point gap between Liverpool and Arsenal decreases.

Liverpool will face the fifth-placed Newcastle United in a midweek Premier League clash on February 27th, whereas Arsenal will take on the third-placed Nottingham Forest on the same day. 

However, if Arsenal start losing more points considering their continuous injury woes, Liverpool may clinch the coveted title even before their encounter against The Gunners.

After this match-week, we will head onto a very congested schedule for both teams, including the UEFA Champions League knock-outs as well. However, will it be Arne Slot or Mikel Arteta who is going to lift their first-ever career PL title after the league concludes on 25 May?

The fans of both teams must keep an eye on the upcoming fixtures to decide further calculations or start celebrations as early as possible!
