This Premier League season has been marked by instability across most teams. Even Manchester City fell into a slump and struggled to recover. Meanwhile, Arsenal also failed to maintain consistency and dropped crucial points in the title race. As a result, Liverpool find themselves very close to securing the Premier League title. Their upcoming game against Tottenham could be the decisive moment.
Arsenal’s draw against Crystal Palace brought Liverpool even closer to lifting the trophy. Mikel Arteta’s team chained multiple draws, and Liverpool took advantage to widen the gap. Now, if Liverpool avoid defeat against Tottenham, they will become 2024/25 Premier League champions. A win or a draw will be enough to seal the title, regardless of the scoreline.
If they succeed, Liverpool will win their second Premier League title in 25 years. They will also interrupt Manchester City’s streak of four consecutive titles. Mohamed Salah has played a crucial role in this achievement. He dominated the league statistically, leading both in goals (27) and assists (18).
Not only Salah but also Arne Slot deserves full credit for Liverpool’s remarkable season. The Dutch manager arrived with the difficult task of replacing Jurgen Klopp. However, he exceeded expectations by building a dynamic and versatile squad. Young players like Conor Bradley, Ryan Gravenberch, and Curtis Jones gained prominence and were crucial to the team’s success.

Nevertheless, Tottenham will not make it easy for them. They have had a very bad season and sit 16th in the Premier League. Therefore, they are desperate to avoid dropping further in the standings. A win in this match would push them up to 14th place and give them a much-needed boost.

Mohamed Salah’s Ballon d’Or hopes: Can the Liverpool star still win the award after standout season?
Mohamed Salah is having one of the best seasons of his career. The Egyptian star positioned himself as a top Ballon d’Or candidate. However, Liverpool’s elimination against Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League could cost him dearly. This setback is even more significant because Raphinha, Pedri, and Lamine Yamal are still competing and making a strong impact.
Moreover, Salah struggled badly against PSG. He failed to score or provide an assist in either leg. Because of that, many critics are questioning his ability to deliver in big games. This does not mean he is out of the race for the trophy. However, it shows that he no longer controls his own destiny on the award.
If the three Barcelona players lose form, Salah could get back into the conversation. Even so, players like Ousmane Dembele and Lautaro Martinez could also challenge him for the award.
