Liverpool returned to the top of the points table in the Premier League with a 3-1 win over Sheffield United. Liverpool's current excellent performance is enough for them to fight for the title. And since it is very difficult to win the title in the Premier League, they have to be stronger and the players have to work hard, otherwise it will not be possible for Liverpool to win the Premier League Champions Trophy. However, since this season Liverpool Arsenal and Manchester City three teams are very competitive in the EPL for the championship, so here Liverpool may not be successful in giving away the trophy.

Yes, a few days ago the Premier League standings were topped by Arsenal. However, this week the Premier League standings are again topped by Liverpool.
I think Liverpool deserves this, because so far Liverpool players have fought very hard in the Premier League. Even though Liverpool players take part in many competitions, such as the FA Cup and European Cup. However, Liverpool players are always able to provide quite good performances in the English league. Like the match against Sheffield UTD, I think Liverpool's game was very stable in that match. With almost 85% ball possession, I think this is extraordinary. So I am sure that this season Liverpool will be the strongest candidate to become Premier League champions. Because it has been proven that Liverpool has fallen to second place in the standings several times, but Liverpool can always climb back to the top of the Premier League standings. Plus the quality of the players is very good.
Apart from that, next week Liverpool is scheduled to visit the Red Devils headquarters (Manchester United). Maybe the match will be very fierce. The reason is that in the previous meeting, Liverpool had quite difficulty winning the match against Manchester United. Even in the FA Cup quarter-finals, Manchester United managed to beat Liverpool with a score of 4-3. So in essence, next week Liverpool must be more alert when facing Manchester United. Moreover, the match will be held at Manchester United headquarters, which will definitely benefit the Manchester United players.
Apart from that, if Liverpool lose or draw in this match, it will definitely have a big impact on Liverpool's position in the Premier League standings. It is possible that Arsenal will rise again to the top of the standings. The reason is, Arsenal is currently only 2 points behind Liverpool.
