The Premier League title race is getting spicy as Arsenal could have a way back in after Liverpool dropped points again.

Arne Slot’s side have been the absolute favourites to win the title this season. They have been the best team in the country, but cracks are starting to appear.

Liverpool have dropped four points in their last three Premier League fixtures, and Arsenal now have more reason to believe that they can win it.

Both clubs have some tricky games coming up, but one side has a clear advantage.

Arsenal and Liverpool’s next six Premier League games

As things stand, Liverpool are eight points clear of Arsenal, but Slot’s men have played a game more.

The Merseysiders are still the favourites to win the Premier League title this season, but their recent performances have shown that they can be beaten.

Arsenal will believe and continue to fight until the end, but it has to be said that both sides have a few difficult games coming up.

Liverpool take on defending champions Manchester City at the Etihad next before facing Newcastle United at home just three days later.

Then, the Reds host Southampton, Everton and West Ham, with a game against Fulham at Craven Cottage sandwiched in between.

Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, on the other hand, take on West Ham, Nottingham Forest, Manchester United, Chelsea, Fulham and Everton in their next six games.

Danny Murphy and Tim Sherwood explain why Liverpool have a clear advantage over Arsenal

Arsenal and Liverpool fans will both feel that things could go wrong in a few of their next six games, but if they want to be champions, they will have to deliver in all of the above fixtures.

Facing Manchester City and Newcastle in the space of three days is a tough ask, but both Danny Murphy and Tim Sherwood claim that the Reds have a better fixture list than Arsenal.

Speaking on Premier League Productions, Murphy said: “I think if you look at it, Liverpool have four home games out of the next six, and Anfield is a fortress.

“I would rather have four home games out of the next six than three and three, which is what Arsenal have.”

Sherwood added: “I agree with you and not only that, I look at Arsenal’s fixtures and their home games are London derbies. We know how difficult it is. Even if it’s not your main rival, it’s very difficult.”
