There aren’t too many uncertainties regarding a new Premier League champion, as Liverpool look flawless and miles ahead of their closest rivals, Arsenal and Nottingham Forest.Arne Slot’s side won their home game at Enfield on Saturday afternoon, beating Ipswich Town 4-1 as routinely as it gets. The tie was wrapped up even before the half-time whistle as Szoboszlai opened the scoring, before Salah nailed a lovely one just under the crossbar to double the lead. Gakpo added his name to a scoresheet seconds before the break, and at that moment, it was blatantly clear we wouldn’t see too much action in the second period.+3 points ✅ pic.twitter.com/AcE0wQQ6ka— Liverpool FC (@LFC) January 25, 2025 The same player, Gakpo, sealed the game with Liverpool’s fourth, but the visitors managed to save their dignity with the only goal to their account in the dying minutes. Slot’s team seems unstoppable, and it would take a whole lot of effort and luck for the Gunners to jeopardize Liverpool’s title credentials.The North Londoners somehow survived that challenging trip to Molineux thanks to Riccardo Calfiori’s second-half winner. Ten-man Arsenal at that moment (Lewis-Skelly was sent off in the first half for a reckless challenge) looked incapable of escaping the Wolves’ trap. However, Arteta’s super-sub made a sensational shot with his left foot into the far corner for a vital victory.🚨🏴 GOAL | Wolves 0-1 Arsenal | CalafioriCALAFIORI HAS GIVEN ARSENAL THE LEAD !!!!!!!!!pic.twitter.com/EDngOxr9Oh— Tekkers Foot (@tekkersfoot) January 25, 2025 Still, the day’s most surprising outcome was Bournemouth’s 5-0 battering of Nottingham Forest on Nuno Espirito Santo’s 51st birthday.The hero of the day was definitely Dango Ouattara, the Burkinabe striker, who scored a hat-trick for Andoni Iraola’s team to push them over the third-placed EPL side.It was another sensational performance of the Cherries, who are on the verge of Champions League places.
