Jurgen Klopp will be hoping that a month’s rest for many of his top players, as well as a pre-season 2.0 in Dubai, will help reset Liverpool’s squad ahead of a crucial second half of the season
The Reds are now expected to reach their minimum aim of Champions League qualification, according to Opta’s supercomputer, after being given a 76.2% chance of finishing in the top four.
The Merseysiders have been promised that Champions League football may not even be required in their summer pursuit of Jude Bellingham (as Christian Falk told The Anfield Wrap, via Yahoo), though the availability of top European competition in 2023/24 would hardly hurt matters.
The bad news is that we’re not in contention for the title, with only a 1.6% chance, as expected given the 15-point difference between ourselves and league leaders Arsenal.

Of course, consistency combined with a great start to the rest of the season might quickly change opinions about our chances of winning our 20th league title, but it should be noted that Manchester City and Arsenal are well ahead.
