In the 33rd round of the English Premier League, Liverpool and Leicester closed the matchday program on Sunday, April 20. This match was largely decisive for both teams.
Liverpool's victory was secured by a solitary goal from Trent Alexander-Arnold in the 76th minute. Notably, Slot's men had total dominance, but Leicester's goalkeeper Mads Hermansen performed brilliantly between the posts.
Remarkably, the "Reds" could clinch the English championship as early as April 23. If Arsenal fails to defeat Crystal Palace, Liverpool can be congratulated on their historic 20th championship. Should the "Gunners" win, Slot's squad could become champions next Sunday at Anfield in a match against Tottenham.
Considering today's defeat, Leicester has officially lost the chance to retain their place in the Premier League. With five rounds left in the season, the "Foxes" trail the safe 17th spot by 18 points and will certainly return to the Championship alongside Southampton. In the next round, Ipswich is likely to join them, as they only have theoretical chances of staying in the Premier League.
