Southampton, Man City, Chelsea and the 11 teams to stop Liverpool matching Arsenal's Invincibles

Liverpool's quest to win a first Premier League title in 30 years continues against Southampton this afternoon.

After beating West Ham United at the London Stadium on Tuesday night, the Reds moved 19 points clear of second-placed Manchester City with 14 games to play.

Goals from Mohamed Salah and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain ensured the Merseyside outfit strengthened their grip on the Premier League trophy.

But a first title win for Liverpool in 30 years is not the only thing in the sights of Jurgen Klopp and his side.

After beating Manchester United, Wolves and West Ham in recent weeks, the Reds have now extended their unbeaten run in the league to 41 games - a record that extends back to January 2019, with 24 of those matches coming this season.

They are now just eight games short of matching the record set by the Arsenal Invincibles - 49 games without a loss in the English top flight.

Arsenal set that record in November 2004 - the season after going a full Premier League campaign without defeat in 2003/04 - and it seemed almost impossible at the time that their achievement would be matched, let alone surpassed, any time soon.

However, Liverpool have shown they could be the side to do just that this season and Arsenal fans will now be worried that their most prized record could be wiped away in just a few months time.

Liverpool still have some tough tests to overcome before that though, including clashes with Merseyside rivals Everton at Goodison Park, and second-placed Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

Liverpool also have to still face Arsenal and Chelsea in London before the end of the season.

Their next hurdle is a game against a Saints side which has taken points off the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham at Anfield this afternoon, and you can see their fixtures for the rest of the season below.
