Liverpool are relying on Chelsea if they are to win the title this week
Thursday 25 June 2020 22:16, UK
Liverpool are still within touching distance of a first top-flight title in 30 years but when could they actually be crowned champions?
Manchester City kicked off with a 3-0 win over Arsenal on Wednesday, before Jurgen Klopp's side had to settle for a point in Sunday's goalless Merseyside derby before bouncing back with a thumping 4-0 victory at home to Crystal Palace.
Liverpool are two points away from securing the title after their Palace win, meaning the runaway Premier League table leaders will be crowned champions if Man City fail to beat Chelsea on Thursday.
If Man City do beat Chelsea, then we're in for a head-to-head showdown when Liverpool travel to Manchester City on Thursday, July 2 live on Sky Sports Premier League.
In that scenario, Liverpool would need just a point against City at the Etihad to win the league.
If Liverpool were to then lose at City then they could finally lift the championship with a victory at home to Aston Villa on Sunday July 5. Were Liverpool to only draw against Villa then they could still win the title if City failed to beat Southampton.
