Liverpool are closing in on the Premier League title, but when is the earliest they could be confirmed as champions?
Liverpool's recent 2-1 victory against West Ham, along with Arsenal's 1-1 draw with Brentford, puts them on the brink of securing the Premier League title.
Gameweek 32's results were pivotal for the destination of the top-flight crown, with Arne Slot's men taking another step towards a second title to follow their 2020 success.
With a 13-point lead and only six matches left in the season, fans are now focused on when Liverpool can clinch the title.
How soon could Liverpool win the Premier League?
The earliest date for confirmation is Sunday, April 20. For that to happen, Arsenal must lose to Ipswich Town, spearheaded by Chelsea and Manchester United target Liam Delap, earlier that day.
If Liverpool defeat Leicester in the late kickoff, they will hit 79 points, while Mikel Arteta's side would remain on 63 points, ensuring the Reds' title is secure.
However, a victory for Arsenal means they will face Crystal Palace on April 23 needing at least a draw to prevent Slot's team from being crowned champions.
If they win, Liverpool could still secure the title by defeating Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on April 27, leaving Arsenal with a maximum of 78 points attainable.
What's next for Arsenal?
Arsenal are seemingly now prioritising the Champions League, as evidenced by Arteta's lineup in the 1-1 draw with Brentford and even the Spaniard's XI the week earlier at Everton.
The Gunners face Real Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday, aiming to secure a semi-final place for the first time since the 2008-09 season.
