Liverpool and Arsenal's crucial next six fixtures in Premier League title race as gap narrows

Liverpool are facing a defining period in their title race after going two Premier League games without a win for the first time this season - with Arsenal breathing down their necks after a vital 2-1 win over Tottenham. The Reds have won just three of their last seven matches in all competitions and there are fears Arne Slot's men could be in the middle of a blip for the first time this season, following a difficult 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest.
Winning at the City Ground was never going to be easy with Nuno Espirito Santo's men currently second in the table after an incredible season so far. But the result came after the disappointing home draw with Manchester United, and defeat in the Carabao Cup.
Arsenal, meanwhile, were winless in in three games in all competitions before their North London Derby clash but are now back on track and have moved to within four points of their rivals after their victory on Wednesday night. Here, Mirrror Football has taken a look at the next six fixtures for both Liverpool and Arsenal in what could be a crucial period for the title race.
Arne Slot's men have some big, yet very winnable games coming up in the Premier League after getting through a tough run of fixtures that saw them face Manchester United, Tottenham and highly-flying Forest. First, they'll travel to Brentford, who just came from two goals down against Manchester City to claim a 2-2 draw in the last minute, with Thomas Frank's men a dangerous opposition after scoring 40 goals this season.
