On Sunday, April 27, Liverpool beat Tottenham Hotspur 5-1 to clinch the 2024-25 Premier League title. It's Liverpool's first league title since 2019-20.
This was Liverpool's first season without talismanic head coach Jurgen Klopp. Many expected the team to struggle without his influence, but new coach Arne Slot stepped up to keep the team on a positive trajectory. He became just the fifth coach in history to win the league in his first Premier League season.
But that wasn't the only way Liverpool's title run wound up being one for the record books. Here are four stunning stats behind the team's 2024-25 championship.
25-7-2: Liverpool's record when it clinched its win
Liverpool won the Premier League title on Matchday 34 of 38 with a record of 25 wins, seven draws and two—yes, just two—losses. It's the most dominant Premier League performance since Manchester City's epic 32-4-2 100-point title run in 2017-18.
Liverpool's 25 wins blew the rest of the league out of the water. Newcastle United, the league's next-winningest team, racked up just 19 in the same amount of time. But it was Liverpool's avoidance of draws that really earned it the title. Liverpool's closest competitor, second-placed Arsenal, only lost three times to Liverpool's two, but it recorded 13 draws to Liverpool's seven. That alone accounted for 12 points of the 15-point spread that wound up separating the two in the table.
80: Liverpool's goals scored when it clinched its win
Liverpool scored a whopping 80 goals on its way to the title. That's 14 more than Manchester City, the next most prolific team in the league, managed in the same amount of time. It's not a record—City scored 106 on its way to the title in 2017-18—but it's a stunning achievement nonetheless.
46: Mohamed Salah's title-winning goal involvements
Has there ever been a clearer Premier League MVP winner than Mo Salah in 2024-25? The Egyptian playmaker led the league in both goals and assists, racking up 28 of the former and 18 of the later for an eye-watering 46 goal involvements in 34 games of play. That's just one goal involvement away from the all-time record shared by Newcastle's Alan Shearer and Manchester United's Andy Cole...and Salah has four games remaining in the season to match it. You'd back him to do just that and more.
Salah was so prolific that he put entire Premier League teams to shame. Southampton, Leicester City, Ipswich Town, West Ham United, Everton, Manchester United and Crystal Palace all created fewer goals as a team this season than he did as an individual.
20: Liverpool's all-time Premier League trophy haul
All title wins are special, but this one was really special to Liverpool fans everywhere. It's the club's 20th Premier League crown, and that draws it level with Manchester United—perhaps its greatest rival—for all-time Premier League titles. That's sobering for United, a team that dominated the late 1990s and mid 2000s but hasn't put together a strong title challenge in well over a decade. These days, Liverpool looks endlessly more capable of winning a 21st and snatching the all-time record than United does.
"We [United and Liverpool] are in different levels at the moment," United coach Ruben Amorim said, via Ed Elliot of the Independent. "And I remember when I started watching the Premier League, it was the opposite."
Liverpool has officially won the Premier League title, but its season isn't over. It has four more games remaining in 2024-25. It will return to Premier League action on Sunday, May 4 against Chelsea.
