Liverpool, currently leading the Premier League with a two-point advantage, faces challenges in their bid for the title, according to Mail Sport's Dominic King. Despite their position at the top of the table, King believes that Liverpool's difficult fixtures and injury problems will hinder their chances. The recent injury to Diogo Jota, which could keep him out for two months, adds to the existing woes of Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara. Additionally, upcoming matches against Everton, Manchester United, and Brighton pose further difficulties. King suggests that Liverpool may drop points in the next six weeks, making them third favorites for the title. He predicts that Manchester City, with their strong form, will ultimately win the league. Liverpool's next games include a home clash against Luton Town, the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea, and a crucial match against City on March 10. To secure the title, Liverpool will need to win most of their remaining matches.
