An additional pitfall on the road to a formidable quadruple. Qualified for the Champions League semi-finals, Liverpool is also aiming for the Premier League title. To do this, Jürgen Klopp does not have much to calculate: he must win all of the remaining seven games, starting with the reception of Manchester United on Tuesday April 19 at 9 p.m. In the standings, the Reds are one point behind Manchester City, struggling with Brighton on Wednesday. The last clash between the two tenors in the league ended in a spectacular draw (2-2), but the Mersey players struck a blow by beating the Cityzens in the FA Cup semi-final on Saturday (3-2 ).
Manchester United does not pursue the same objective. The Red Devils, 5th, must win to come back up to Tottenham, current last qualified in the Champions League. Carried by a capital Cristiano Ronaldo, the Mancunians remain on a narrow success against Norwich City (3-2). The challenge is also to shake up his best enemy. A final league victory would see Liverpool catch up with Manchester United at the top of the charts, with 20 titles. The motivation is all found for the partners of Paul Pogba.
