we have to presume that the scousers will win their games in hand.....and therefore the gap is 6pts.......of course someone could take something off them but iirc they have a lot of easier games coming up before we play them.....
this leicester game was one where they could have dropped points BUT leicester are looking very average and have very little goal threat...hopefully madison can pull a worldy out of somewhere and they can get a draw but it looks very unlikely
edit:
in fact before we play them they have chelsea away and brighton away which look like their hardest games (they were supposed to also play arsenal away but that has been rearranged and no date for it).....all their other games look pretty straight forward.....
