Arsenal must keep believing they can overhaul Liverpool | OneFootball

Liverpool went into last week with genuine hopes of winning the Premier League, Champions League and League Cup treble.

By Sunday night, defeats against Paris Saint-Germain and Newcastle United had scuppered their hopes of winning the last two competitions.

While a 12-point lead with nine games remaining looks unassailable in the Premier League, Arsenal must keep believing they can overhaul the Reds.

Slot must salvage something from a promising season

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has received plenty of praise this term, but recent developments have changed the narrative.

His unwillingness to rotate his squad due to a lack of faith in fringe players has impacted their performances at a crucial point in the season.

The Reds should have enough about them to get over the line, but the upcoming fixture list undoubtedly offers Arsenal a glimmer of hope.

Liverpool have some tricky games to come and could easily ship a sizeable chunk of points before the Gunners visit Anfield in May.

Slipping up from this position would be a major calamity for Liverpool and Arsenal must do what they can to exert some pressure over the next few weeks.
