Liverpool Leads Premier League Title Race by 12 Points

The Grand National, the second-most watched horse race globally, faces pressure from its status, especially compared to the Melbourne Cup. While both races draw enormous viewership, there is a significant drop in numbers when compared to the Melbourne Cup, with the Grand National's viewership estimated to be in the hundreds of millions less than the top event. The importance of these races extends beyond entertainment, as they hold political influence within the sport, leading to scrutiny over course modifications and veterinary protocols. Meanwhile, the Premier League is heating up, with Liverpool on course to be crowned champions, holding a 12-point lead over Arsenal, while Nottingham Forest, Brighton, and Fulham are in contention for Champions League spots. Arsenal's hopes hinge on their remaining matches, where even a perfect run may not be enough to catch Liverpool. The upcoming fixtures for both Liverpool and Arsenal will be critical as they navigate the final games of the season.
