Liverpool manager Arne Slot says his team is determined to secure the club’s 20th English Premier League title by getting a point against Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday.
Arsenal’s draw with Crystal Palace on Wednesday means the Reds need just a point against Spurs to win the Premier League with four games remaining.
Liverpool last secured the title in 2019-20 under former manager Jurgen Klopp during a time when fans were not allowed into stadiums because of the Covid pandemic.
The Reds lifted the trophy in an empty Anfield as they claimed their first top-flight win in 30 years.
Tottenham are without a win at Anfield since 2011 and will come into the game having lost 18 league games this season and with their primary focus on a Europa League semi-final first-leg against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday.

Liverpool have been beaten just twice in the league this season – once at Anfield – and have the best home record in the top flight, having earned 41 points from 16 games.
Slot, who has previously won the Dutch title with Feyenoord, is in his first season as Liverpool manager after replacing Klopp last summer.
His side have a 12-point advantage over second-placed Arsenal.
There have been suggestions that the top flight has not been as competitive as in recent seasons but Slot believes it is a difficult league to win.
