Liverpool's hopes of winning a 20th top flight league title took a new twist this evening, after Manchester City could only play out a 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Patrick Vieira's side produced a dogged defensive display and even caused City problems on the counter-attack in a result that will be music to the ears of Liverpool supporters.
The Reds now know that victory against Arsenal on Wednesday evening will cut the gap between Pep Guardiola's side and themselves to just a solitary point.
