5) Champions League is certainly in Liverpool’s hands
The win rounded off a very positive weekend for Liverpool, with their rivals below them all dropping points. The simple reality is that a draw just wouldn’t have done in this match, and they passed the big test with flying colours when the pressure was on. They are now in the driving seat to qualify for the Champions League. They still have 3 big fixtures to go this season, Southampton, West Ham, and Middlesbrough. Fans will be sweating on the fitness of Coutinho who could be key to their Champions League qualification hopes.
