RUUD VAN NISTELROOY ON LIVERPOOL
"The general quality of the squad is very balanced. Mohamed Salah's form has been a huge factor in them achieving their goals, and also Arne Slot and his assistants have done a tremendous job in their first season to be in this position to be able to win it (the PL title)."

SLOT ON TAA FITNESS AND FUTURE
"We don't talk about these things (new contract) as long as things are not done yet - and they aren't, so that's why we don't talk in public about that situation.
"Every time he trains or plays with us, he shows his commitment. The moment he's on the pitch, he shows me what a great player he is and how much he's involved in us trying to achieve our goals this season. Everyone who has watched football over the past six or seven years knows he is an incredible full-back. Let's see what the future brings."

LEICESTER CITY ON THE BRINK OF RELEGATION
Wolves have just secured a 1-0 victory at Manchester United to climb to 15th place and leave The Foxes needing a miracle.
The maximum tally of points Ruud van Nistelrooy's men can achieve is 36 which is the same number that West Ham currently have in 17th spot.
The Hammers have a vastly superior goal difference too and it's just a matter of when Leicester's relegation is confirmed now.
Anything other than a win over Liverpool will seal their fate today.

TWO CHANGES FOR LIVERPOOL
Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai come back into the starting XI following the 2-1 win over West Ham last time out.
Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota drop to the bench where they are joined by Trent Alexander-Arnold, who returns from the ankle injury sustained against PSG on March 11.
Darwin Nunez is also among the substitutes after missing out against The Hammers for reportedly being unwell.

LIVERPOOL CANNOT WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE TODAY
The pre-weekend hype centred around the prospect of Arne Slot's men being crowned champions today, if Ipswich beat Arsenal and The Merseysiders won at Leicester City.
However, The Gunners have just secured a 4-0 win at 10-man Town meaning The Reds must wait.
The fact remains that two wins for Slot and Co from their remaining six games will guarantee a record-equalling 20th top-flight title.
