A come-from-behind 2-1 win against Southampton on Tuesday night means Jurgen Klopp's men have a chance of winning the English Premier League this weekend.
It is, as Klopp himself said after the match, "not likely but possible" as Manchester City, the league's leader, is a point ahead and can secure a third title in four seasons if it beats Aston Villa at home Sunday.
But Villa is managed by Liverpool's celebrated former captain Steven Gerrard and playing a part in helping Liverpool secure its 20th top-flight title would be redemption for a man who never won the league with his hometown club. That would be the sort of fanciful story written by a Hollywood scriptwriter, but stranger things have happened in football.
