Premier League title race: Liverpool will be very difficult to catch with seven-point lead, says Sam Allardyce
The Premier League title race is NOT over but Liverpool will be very difficult to catch if they manage to take advantage of Manchester Citys slip, believes Sam Allardyce.The Reds have the chance to go seven points clear at the top when they take on Leicester City on Wednesday night, after title rivals Man City suffered a shock defeat at Newcastle.2

Pep Guardiola watched his side slip up in the title race against Newcastle

Rafael Benitez handed his former club a huge boost as the Magpies came back from an early goal down to beat Pep Guardiolas side 2-1 at St James Park.With 14 games still to play, anything could of course still happen, but Allardyce says Liverpool can put the pressure back on the defending champions with a win over the Foxes. And the former England boss believes City may have to go the rest of the season unbeaten to have any chance of catching Jurgen Klopps side.Speaking on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, Big Sam said: Its not over. There are too many games left to say its over, too many things that may happen.But, its certainly going to be very difficult for anybody to overtake Liverpool.2
