With each passing match, it’s becoming more difficult to justify any type of interest in the English Premier League title “race”.
At this point, Liverpool would need a total collapse – and even then for Arsenal to become relentless.
Still, it’s at Anfield where we start our Wednesday night round up.
Same old Moyes
No matter the form, David Moyes plus Everton at Anfield can never equal victory.
Once again it was Liverpool who prevailed as Diogo Jota’s second-half goal gave the hosts a 1-0 derby win which restored their 12-point lead over Arsenal at the summit.
It means the Reds need only 13 points from the 24 remaining to win just their second title in the Premier League era.
Elsewhere, the race for the top five is getting more intense with wins for Manchester City, Newcastle United – who have a game in hand – and Aston Villa.
The latter saw Marcus Rashford score for the second match in a row as they beat Brighton 3-0 away from home to leapfrog the Seagulls and move into seventh place – two off the Carabao Cup winners in fifth.
