Liverpool fans will surely be absolutely delighted after the Premier League made an announcement on Friday.
Supporters are currently feeling tense as Jurgen Klopp attempts to fend off Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta in the Premier League title race.
All three of Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City boast immense quality, and it is truly hard to separate them.
Fine margins will – therefore – surely decide the Premier League title race, and Liverpool have just been given a boost in that respect…
The Premier League have now announced that Tottenham will play Chelsea on Thursday 2nd May – after that fixture was previously postponed due to the Carabao Cup final.
Why does that concern Liverpool, you may ask?
Well, Tottenham also face Arsenal on Sunday 28th April – before travelling to Anfield for another Premier League clash on Sunday 5th May.
It means Spurs will be playing Arsenal, Chelsea and finally Liverpool in the space of just seven days, in what is a nightmarish spell of fixtures for Ange Postecoglou’s side.
Spurs’ match at Chelsea finally has a date. Postecoglou’s men now face Arsenal at home then Chelsea and Liverpool away in the space of seven days.
For Liverpool – however – it could mean Klopp’s side end up facing a truly exhausted Tottenham, who will presumably use a lot of energy to avoid embarrassing results against Arsenal and Chelsea, both of whom are London rivals.
In ideal circumstances, Liverpool fans will hope that Spurs are fresh enough to take something from Arsenal, but run out of steam by the time they get to Anfield and wither, therefore handing the Reds a boost in the title race.
Having said that, Liverpool need to still be in the title race by this point to benefit from whatever Tottenham might do against Arsenal.
Liverpool fixtures
There are no easy games in the Premier League, although Klopp will surely be expecting his side to reach this clash against Tottenham while still competing against Arsenal and Manchester City.
Once the Reds get Sunday’s game against Manchester United at Old Trafford out of the way, there are a number of winnable games.
Liverpool’s run in
Manchester United vs Liverpool
Liverpool vs Crystal Palace
Fulham vs Liverpool
Everton vs Liverpool
West Ham vs Liverpool
Liverpool vs Tottenham
Aston Villa vs Liverpool
Liverpool vs Wolves
Of course, Liverpool have previously struggled at Old Trafford and Goodison Park in title races, with costly draws proving to be decisive at the end of the season.
Hopefully, the Reds can go all the way on this occasion, and wave Klopp goodbye with a second Premier League title
