Now, the consequences for Arsenal, which was supposed to be a potential title, are different as they hope to get their spots only in the next season’s Champions League.
Mikel Arteta’s men lost to Paris Saint-Germain mid-week to end their European adventure, having only scored one point in their last two league games, and the chase gap has been largely trimmed.
Taking something away from Anfield would be a major achievement, with Liverpool losing only once this season.
Arne Slot’s side won the league two weeks ago by tearing down Arsenal’s North London rival Tottenham 5-1, and there’s little to play on paper.
But they will want to end a brilliant season at a high point.

The slot machine made six changes to the team that lost 3-1 at Chelsea last weekend.
Trent Alexander-Arnold announced this week that he would leave Anfield by the end of the season and he must be happy with his position on the bench, with Conor Bradley at right back.
Jarell Quansah, Kostas tsimikas, Wataru Endo, Harvey Elliott and Diogo Jota all exited along with Ibrahima Konate, Andy Robertson, Ryan Gravenberch, Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz to return to the starting XI.
Liverpool: Allison; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Graves, Jones, Szobosley; Salah, Gakpo, Diaz
