Liverpool take title race down to the wire

-

Liverpool kept the Premier League title race alive until the final day of the season after winning 2-1 at Southampto­n on Tuesday. The result leaves Liverpool a point behind leaders Manchester City ahead of Sunday’s final round of games. City are at home to Aston Villa while Liverpool host Wolverhamp­ton Wanderers at Anfield.

City have 90 points with Liverpool on 89, meaning that victory for Pep Guardiola’s side against Villa would secure their fourth league title in five seasons.

Jurgen Klopp rested nine of the team who beat Chelsea on penalties in the FA Cup final on Saturday.
