A full slate of action is coming up in Matchweek 27 in the latest chapter of an incredible race for the Premier League title.
Despite a mounting list of injuries and a busy schedule, Liverpool are still top of the table, one point above Manchester City.
To maintain that lead, the Reds must improve on a record that has seen them fail to win in any of their six previous Premier League matches at the City Ground, the most times have Liverpool visited a side in the competition without winning.
Jurgen Klopp's side will hope to maintain their scoring form - they have netted 11 goals in their last three league matches.
Although Nuno Espirito Santo's Forest has history on their side, it hasn’t been easy for them recently, and they now sit one spot outside the relegation zone after only one win in 2024. Securing another three points at home against Liverpool could be vital in their chase for safety.
Arsenal will need to take care of business against Sheffield United to stay near Liverpool and Man City in the title race or jump them if either team slips up.
The Gunners have been firing on all cylinders, scoring 25 goals in their last six league matches. They travel to Sheffield to face a side that has conceded goals at a historic level, setting the stage for another potential rout for Mikel Arteta’s side.
In a title race where goal differential could be key, Arsenal hold a +1 lead over Liverpool and a +6 advantage over Man City. Putting several goals past the Blades could be vital in maintaining that lead at the end of the season.
The road to getting out of the relegation zone is becoming harder for Sheff Utd, and they are now 11 points behind 17th-place Nottingham Forest. However, an improbable upset over Arsenal could be a turning point in the season.
