Liverpool top at Christmas: Why this could be a bad omen for the Reds’ title hopes
‘Tis the season to be jolly, especially if your team is top of the Premier League.Christmas came early for Liverpool fans on Saturday as Crystal Palace stunned title rivals Manchester City at the Etihad to leave the Reds four points clear at the top of the tree.1Liverpool are top at Christmas for the third time in the last ten years City’s shocking 3-2 defeat, coupled with the Reds’ impressive 2-0 victory at Wolves on Friday night, puts Jurgen Klopp’s men in a hugely promising position as they bid to win their first league title since 1990.In fact, the last time Palace beat Manchester City was 28 years ago – when Liverpool last tasted top-flight glory.History dictates that the team which sits top of the pile on Christmas Day usually goes on to win the title, but the omens aren’t all great for the Reds.Only twice in the last ten years has the top-placed team at Christmas failed to lift the Premier League trophy… and it was Liverpool both times.
