Liverpool set to surpass Man United's 20-year-old record for early EPL title win

Liverpool are unarguably the best side in Europe's top five leagues having gone forty games without suffering any defeat.

And as it looks, the Meyerside side is just some few steps towards breaking another big record in the Premier League.

Liverpool took a step towards history after extending their winning streak to forty following a narrow 2-1 victory over Wolves at Molineux Stadium on Thursday night, January 23.

The victory means Jurgen Klopp's side is 67 points on the log with all coming from 23 Premier League games unbeaten.

Incredibly, the victory levels them with Chelsea's record under Jose Mourinho, and they are a few leaps to replicate the great feat recorded by Arsenal's Invincible team under former manager Arsene Wenger.

Liverpool are also set to win the Premier League at the earliest part of the year, which may see them break Manchester United's record standing since 2001.
