And fifth-placed Liverpool continued their pressure on Newcastle III, and fourth-placed Manchester United, beating Leicester City on Monday.
Despite Liverpool claiming their seventh consecutive league victory, Klopp said in statements to the BBC: “I don’t think we’ll finish the season in the golden box, given the way Manchester United and Newcastle are playing. Both teams have great quality.”
“It would be a real shame if they backed off and we didn’t make the most of it, so we have to do our job,” Klopp added.
And he continued: “As for our competitors for the Champions League qualifying card, I think they preferred that we lost today, and I will be in their place as well.”
He concluded: “Will our competitors stumble? I don’t know, will we win the last two games? I don’t know, I don’t think our competitors will stumble, but if it happens we have to be able to enjoy.” British.
Liverpool sit fifth in the Premier League table with 65 points, while Newcastle and Manchester United come third and fourth with 66 points, considering Liverpool have played more than one game.
