I think Liverpool will take advantage of this situation to continue to gain points and try to widen the gap with Man City, the opponent they will face after the international break is the promoted club Southampton I don't think Liverpool will make a mistake in this match because Southampton's performance is also very bad playing at home will not have much effect if the opponent is Liverpool. Meanwhile, Man City will face Tottenham if Man City loses again it will make Liverpool 8 points ahead.
In a title race with some strong competitors, assume in this season in theory their main competitors are Manchester City and Arsenal, Liverpool with their own experience of several failed seasons under Manchester City, know very well that a title only will be awarded at the season ending. No matter how impressive they've been playing since the season kick-off, if they lose good form in middle or at the end of season, the league title will possibly be taken over by another competitor.
In many latest seasons, Manchester City did it best in Premier League, and it's very early to say Manchester City will not be able to catch Liverpool and surpass the Kop in rest of season.
