Liverpool FC are Premier League champions once again, claiming their 20th top-flight title and drawing level with Manchester United’s historic record.
A Dominant Campaign
Under new manager Arne Slot, Liverpool (3.10) delivered a masterclass season, securing the title with four matches to spare after a commanding 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur (2.95) at Anfield on April 27, 2025.
The Reds accumulated an impressive 82 points from 34 games, establishing a 15-point lead over second-placed Arsenal. Losing just two matches all season, they displayed remarkable consistency throughout the campaign.
The Title-Clinching Match
Former Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke briefly gave Tottenham hope with an early goal. However, Liverpool responded emphatically with strikes from Luis Díaz, Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo, and Mohamed Salah, plus an own goal by Destiny Udogie.
Liverpool’s dominance was reflected in the statistics: 62% possession and 25 shots to Spurs’ mere 8.
Star Performers
Mohamed Salah continued his brilliant form and has now contributed 28 goals and 18 assists throughout the season.
Captain Virgil van Dijk marshalled the defence expertly, while Alexis Mac Allister provided both steel and creativity in midfield. Young talents like Conor Bradley and Jarell Quansah also made valuable contributions when called upon.
Slot’s Immediate Success
In his debut season after replacing the beloved Jürgen Klopp, Arne Slot became the first Dutch manager to win the Premier League and only the fifth manager ever to claim the title in his first English season.
After the match, Slot humbly acknowledged his predecessor: “Jürgen built the house; I only had to add some touches. This is for the players, the club, and the fans.”
A Proper Celebration
Unlike the 2020 title won during COVID-19 restrictions, this championship was celebrated properly. Over 54,000 fans packed Anfield, with thousands more rejoicing outside the stadium.
The victory ended Manchester City’s four-year reign as champions and reestablished Liverpool at the pinnacle of English football.
