Liverpool have so far raced their way to a commanding position at the top of the Premier League.
After 14 games played, they are clear in first place by a minimum of four points by the end of the weekend.

In addition, they will have a game in hand on their rivals after today's Merseyside Derby against Everton was officially postponed on safety grounds, as Storm Darragh continues to travel across the UK with winds soaring to speeds of around 60mph.
And so while Liverpool were not able to take to the field, there were three major victories for the Reds which will be important going forward.
Everton contest postponed
Liverpool were due to play Everton to end a two-week spell of hellish fixtures, where the Reds played Real Madrid, Manchester City and Newcastle.
While missing Ibrahima Konate, Alisson Becker, Conor Bradley, Kostas Tsimikas, Federico Chiesa and Diogo Jota, Liverpool needed to come up with a winning performance on the back of their 3-3 draw to Newcastle earlier in the week, in a 12.30pm kick-off at Goodison Park, which was set to be a lively contest.
A pretty tough ask to say the least.
Many fans were apprehensive ahead of the match and now that Liverpool will have the fixture rescheduled, it is likely that the Reds will be better prepared when the fixture comes around again.
In addition, Alexis Mac Allister was set to miss the game in order to serve his one-match suspension for picking up five Premier League yellow cards. Instead, he will sit out at Anfield when Fulham visit next weekend, and he will likely be available when the Everton fixture is rescheduled.
The likelihood of further suspensions decreases
From the halfway point of the Premier League season, the threshold for yellow cards increases to 10 before a player serves a suspension.
While Liverpool were able to sit out of this week's fixtures, the players now have just four more league games to get through, without reaching the current yellow card threshold of five, before they escape the likelihood of serving a suspension.
Currently, Ryan Gravenberch is the player most likely to be suspended next, sitting on four yellow cards, meanwhile, Ibrahima Konate, who is also on four yellow cards, is set to be out injured until after the cut-off point.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Dominik Szoboszlai are all on three yellow cards, so they would need to pick up two more in the next five games if they are to be suspended for one match like Mac Allister currently is.
Man City continue to fall away
After finally managing to break their seven-game winless streak in Wednesday's 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest, City travelled to Crystal Palace and their struggles quickly returned.
Oliver Glasner's side scored the opener in the first few minutes of the match and after Erling Haaland equalised for the reigning Premier League champions, Palace went ahead again, only to be pegged back by Rico Lewis, who subsequently was set off in the dying embers of the game.
So regardless of the fact that Liverpool didn't play today, they will be able to pull away from Manchester City by a further two points if they win the Merseyside derby, whenever it ends up taking place.
While not entirely conceding the title race, Pep Guardiola spoke to the BBC in his post-match interview and said: "It's a season to suffer. We'll see what happens in the last month.
"We cannot talk about the title race when we lose four games in a row and draw."
Arne Slot will no doubt have wanted to deliver a standout performance against Everton this afternoon, to continue the side's illustrious form and to have the fixture ticked off for the season.
But even despite not being able to take to the field, things could hardly have worked out better for his side today.
