Liverpool, comfortable leader of the Premier League, visits this Sunday from 15 to his classic rival Everton in a match corresponding to the date 30 of English soccer with ESPN2 televising . If he achieves victory, Jurgen Klopp's team could consecrate this Monday if their guard and current champion, Manchester City, also lose on Monday against Burnley, at home.

A victory would give Liverpool a distance of 25 points over the Manchester City of Sergio Agüero and Nicolás Otamendi, who would thus receive Burnley with the obligation not to lose to continue having a minimum illusion.

Except for a true sports catastrophe, the consecration of Liverpool is just a matter of time. Klopp's team has an almost perfect walk in the Premier League, in which it won 27 games, tied one and lost the rest.

With that campaign, he built a solid lead that seems impossible for City to discount. For Liverpool, the last champion of Europe and the World -although already eliminated from the current Champions-, it would be a historical consecration. His last title dates from the 1989/90 season, when the Premier League format had not yet been implemented.
