Man City are showing signs of vulnerability and were beaten by rivals Arsenal just before the international break.
Paul Fennessy AS IT stands, just four points separate Premier League leaders Tottenham and sixth-place Brighton.
The only year Liverpool triumphed was by a similarly comprehensive margin — 18 points in the 2018-19 pandemic-interrupted season. Should they succeed, not only would it consolidate their dominance, but it would be the first time in English football history that one side has won four titles on the bounce.
However, a subsequent 12-match winning run during the business end of the campaign was enough to get them over the line. Tottenham have done remarkably well so far, as reflected by Ange Postecoglou enjoying the rare feat of winning back-to-back manager-of-the-month awards. Conversely, Arsenal have to worry about Champions League football this season — last year, they could afford to invariably play an understrength team in the Europa League.
