Liverpool will have just a 14 per cent chance of winning the Premier League title if they lose this Sunday to Manchester City, according to a statistical study.
Analysis from data company Nielsen Gracenote ahead of Sunday's title showdown between the top-two in the English top-flight shows that the Reds' chances of claiming the title would go down drastically with a loss - they would be four points behind with seven games remaining.
Yet a victory would make Jurgen Klopp's side the favourites - but not by much - with their hopes rising to 68 per cent, while a draw would produce little change, with Pep Guardiola's team still favourites at 63% compared to Liverpool's 37%.
