Liverpool head into their final seven matches of the 2024/25 Premier League season knowing exactly what is expected of them if they are to wrap up a record-equalling 20th English top-flight trophy. Arne Slot’s men will host West Ham United next after seeing closest rivals Arsenal drop points to Brentford the day before.
With their fingertips already around the famous trophy, it is only a matter of time before the country’s top prize returns to Anfield. For Liverpool supporters keen to find out when the probable will become the definite, it has been worked out when Liverpool could officially claim the Premier League crown and who may have to give them a guard of honour.
When Liverpool Can Mathematically Win Premier League Title
The Reds need nine more points from seven games to claim the crown
In order to guarantee championship status, Slot’s side must pick up nine more points on the basis that Arsenal win every single game. If that were to be the case, it would mean that the Reds could claim the title on April 27 against Tottenham at Anfield.
In terms of the earliest that Liverpool could be crowned champions, there is a scenario where that could happen in two weeks. If Mikel Arteta’s already fragile Arsenal were to lose their next game to Ipswich Town, then it would mean that the Reds would grab hold of a 20th league title on April 20 at Leicester City – so long as they win it and the match with West Ham this week.
It would cement what has already been an incredible debut season for Slot and his coaching staff, as in this instance, they would still have five more Premier League games to play. As things stand, Manchester United hold the record for the earliest date to become Premier League champions, winning the title on April 14 during the 2000/01 season, meaning Slot would be just six days away from making history.
