Liverpool underlined their status as Premier League champions-elect, as they brushed aside Manchester City 2-0 at a rainy Etihad Stadium on Sunday. Was this the weekend they won a record-equalling 20th league title?

Mohamed Salah was on target again as Liverpool took a significant stride towards their second Premier League title with a 2-0 win over champions Manchester City. The Egyptian also created another for Dominik Szoboszlai as Arne Slot's side claimed a crucial victory at the Etihad Stadium which lifted Arne Slot's side 11 points clear at the top of the table.

Manchester City are the defending champions. Liverpool are the firm title favourites and took an early lead in this game through Mohamed Salah.

Liverpool were a class above Manchester City in their comfortable 0–2 victory at the home of the reigning champions.

Certainly, if Mohamed Salah keeps this up, the title will be won in time for Arsenal to give them a guard of honor at Anfield in May. For the 11th time this season, the presumptive Ballon d'Or winner graced a game with a goal and assist. The previous high watermark in a Premier League campaign was 11. It is February.
