'Not happy' - how title race looks as Slot rues Liverpool draw

Arne Slot Arne Slot

Liverpool boss Arne Slot expressed frustration after his side’s 2-2 draw at Aston Villa, believing they dropped two crucial points in the title race.

Despite an eight-point lead over Arsenal, Liverpool have played one game more, giving their rivals a chance to close the gap. Darwin Nunez missed a key chance, while Villa nearly snatched a winner.

Opta still predicts Liverpool to finish top with 87 points, though their title-winning probability has dipped slightly.

The Reds face a tough run-in, including matches against Manchester City and Arsenal. Arsenal, unbeaten in 15 league games, have a slightly easier schedule but still face top-half teams.

Liverpool’s fate may hinge on their clash with Arsenal on May 10, with both teams hoping to secure the title before the final matchday.
