Liverpool have moved 25 points clear of Manchester City after playing two games more than the reigning champions.
The Reds now need only three wins from 9 matches to win their first-ever Premier League title after beating Bournemouth 2-1 at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.
Liverpool have set a new Premier League record of 22 consecutive wins at home, the longest such winning run in English top-flight history.
Mohamed Salah (25′) and Sadio Mane (33′) scored for Liverpool after Callum Wilson (9′) had controversially given the visitors an early lead.
The Merseyside giants have the small matter of a Champions League last-16 second leg against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, and the derby against Everton next weekend.
Meanwhile, Salah has become the first Liverpool player to score at least 20 goals in 3 successive seasons since Michael Owen (2000-01, 2001-02, 2002-03).
Salah’s numbers:
2017/18: 52 games, 44 goals
2018/19: 52 games, 27 goals
2019/20: 39 games, 20 goals
Not even Fernando Torres and Luis Suarez did that.
