EPL: ‘It’s possible’ – Jurgen Klopp explains how Liverpool could beat Man City to league title on Sunday

Liverpool boss, Jurgen Klopp has said that it is possible that his side could be crowned the Premier League winners on Sunday.

Liverpool beat Southampton 2-1 on Tuesday to close the gap between them and City to just one point heading to the final day.

Liverpool came from a goal down at St Mary’s after Nathan Redmon put the home side ahead, to win 2-1 with goals from Takumi Minamino and Joel Matip.

The Reds welcome Wolves at Anfield, while Pep Guardiola’s City play Aston Villa at the Etihad Stadium.

Klopp insisted that City remain on course to win the Premier League title once again, but hopes there would be a surprise.

After the game against Southampton, Klopp was asked to rate his side’s title chances, and the German told BBC Sport: “Of course it is unlikely because City play at home against Aston Villa, who play only on Thursday.

“But it is football. I think the time when City became champion [in 2019] it was because of 11 millimetres.

“If someone wants us to be champion, then we have to win first and Aston Villa need to get a point at City.

“It is possible, not likely but possible. That is enough.”
