Liverpool took their winning streak to six when they beat a battling Brentford 1-0 in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
Mohamed Salah's goal in the 13th minute was enough to move the Reds to within one point of Manchester United in fourth place. But Erik ten Hag's side have two games in hand over their rivals - the first of which comes at West Ham United tonight (7pm).
While it will require an almighty slip up from United for Liverpool to make the top four, it now looks a certainty they will be playing European football next season, given they are five points ahead of Tottenham Hotspur in sixth.
