The competition issue this year is really helping Liverpool, I checked a few previous seasons and almost always the 2nd (sometimes 3rd) place in the Premier League after 28 rounds had more than 60 points. Now even if Arsenal win their next game they will only have 57 points. The closest season that was similar to this was 20-21 when after 28 rounds the 2nd place was United (lol) with 54 points.

Liverpool have very big chance to win Premier League because many things stay on their side, firstly their outstanding performances that are much better than other competitors, and secondly very inconsistency of their competitors. Liverpool only need to win against themselves to win Premier League title and if they can avoid surprising bad matches, they can take a trophy and don't have to care about what Arsenal do next months.

There is almost no significant pressure for Liverpool even though they also need concentration to face competition in the Champions League, but it must be acknowledged that Arne Slot has the ability to control the team to appear more consistent to maintain the chances of the English League title this season.

They have good advantage in Premier League and not too big pressure from Arsenal with inconsistency of this competitor, but it's wrong to say Liverpool won't have to focus on their next matches in Premier League. Playing carelessly and losing like 2 matches can trigger their unbelievable and unimaginable collapse at the moment. Focusing and playing carefully each next match will be their best prevention of any collapse.

There were clear cut games that Arsenal would have won but they either play draw or lose. There was this time Everton did Arsenal a favour by playing draw Vs Liverpool, it didn't stop there, two games after the draw Vs Everton. Aston Villa also played draw Vs Liverpool, that period Liverpool won 1 game out of 3 games in one week, that's 4 points dropped. In this same period, Arsenal lost to to West Ham 1 - 0 and drew Vs Aston Villa 0 - 0, in the space of two games they lost 5 points in the process.
