The Reds can outrun Chelsea
Thanks to Chelsea's defeat against Fulham (1-2), Liverpool can widen the gap in the standings by taking a 7-point lead over the Blues who remain runners-up to the Reds, pending Arsenal's match against Ipswich.
Liverpool are virtually imbatable
Leader of the Premier League, Liverpool is walking on water with only one defeat on the clock. Certainly held in check by Fulham (2-2) in mid-December, the Reds once again confirmed their great form by slapping Tottenham (3-6). Facing Leicester, Liverpool emerge as the big favorite.

Liverpool's official XI
