Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp said it was “not likely but possible” that his team could pip Manchester City to the Premier League title in Sunday's final round of games.

Klopp's side beat Southampton 2-1 on Tuesday to leave them a point behind City with one game left to play for both teams. Liverpool would need City to fail to beat Aston Villa at home on Sunday while winning their own game against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Anfield.

“It is possible, not likely but possible. That is enough,” said Klopp, who won the Premier League in 2020 but could see City claim a fourth title in five years. “But it is football. I think the time when City became champion [in 2019] it was because of 11 millimetres,” he added, referring to John Stones' clearance off the line for City against Liverpool that season.“If someone wants us to be champion then we have to win first and Aston Villa need to get a point at City.
