Moreover, the schedule is much more favorable for Jurgen Klopp’s side. The Merseyside club only have West Brom, Burnley, and Crystal Palace to end their current campaign.

On the other hand, Chelsea and Leicester face each other (with at least one of them guaranteed to drop points).

Meanwhile, for the season’s closure, Leicester will take on Tottenham, while Chelsea will finish up by visiting Aston Villa. A much more difficult scenario for the top-4 race this season!
