Liverpool are arguably the most successful English club in history after five Champions League titles and 18 league titles but they are yet to win the Premier League title since it began in 1992.

The Merseysiders started the weekend with a one-point lead over title rivals Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.

Premier League champions Manchester City secured the top spot on Saturday after their 1-0 win at Bournemouth courtesy a 55th-minute strike from substitute Riyad Mahrez and Liverpool needed to beat Everton to snatch it back from the Citizens.

As it stands, Liverpool trail Manchester City by one point with nine games to go.
