We’ve been here before. When Liverpool won the Premier League title in 2020, they did so with seven games to spare.
It meant that Jurgen Klopp’s side won the title earlier than any other side in top-flight history. Indeed, even had the Reds not won a single point after the pandemic-enforced lockdown, they’d still have won the title. The Reds had 82 points after 29 games (yes, dropping just five points in 27 Premier League games) when the pandemic paused life. Manchester City only gained 81 points by the end of the season.
