Liverpool have won the 2019-20 Premier League title following Manchester City's defeat at the hands of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this evening.

The Reds' 4-0 drubbing of Crystal Palace on Wednesday left Man City knowing that only a victory in West London would prolong their reign as champions until Liverpool visit the Etihad Stadium on July 2.

However, Chelsea's 2-1 victory leaves Man City 23 points adrift of Jurgen Klopp's side with only 21 points left to fight for, giving Liverpool an unassailable lead.

The result caps off a campaign of unprecedented dominance for the Merseysiders as they end a long, 30-year wait to be crowned champions of England for a 19th time, and a first since 1990.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the most impressive records set by Liverpool during their unforgettable campaign.

Earliest ever title win

Liverpool were robbed of the earliest title win by date due to the coronavirus pandemic, but a more accurate barometer of success is the earliest title win by games remaining.

The Reds still have seven matches left to play this season, wrapping up the title two games earlier than any other team in Premier League history.

Manchester United in 2000-01 and Man City in 2017-18 both became mathematically uncatchable with five games left, but both have now been left behind by Liverpool's class of 2019-20.

Best ever start to a season

No team in the history of Europe's top five leagues have fared as well after 31 games of a season than Liverpool have, amassing a whopping 86 points from the 93 on offer.

Incredibly, Klopp's men dropped points in only one of their opening 27 games - taking 79 points from 81 in that time - before seeing their unbeaten run ended by Watford.

Even with that defeat and a subsequent draw against Everton, Liverpool have only dropped points in three league matches all season.

Most points won in a 38-game spell

The absolute maximum number of points it is possible to win over the course of a full season is 114 - and from February 27, 2019 to February 24, 2020 Liverpool accumulated 110.

During that time Klopp's side won 36 matches and drew only two - away to neighbours Everton and bitter rivals Manchester United - setting a record which may never be matched.

Liverpool actually first surpassed the previous record of 102 points - set by Man City in 2018 and Chelsea in 2005 - with their win over Tottenham Hotspur on January 11, but their relentlessness saw them raise the bar even further.

Biggest lead at the top of the table

Liverpool boasted a 25-point lead at the top of the table throughout the coronavirus lockdown, which is the biggest gap ever between first and second place in the top flight.

Whether the Reds are able to hold on to such a big advantage until the end of the campaign remains to be seen, but their place in the records books for this category is already secured.

Victory over Bournemouth opened the chasm up to 25 points, and Man City's pre-lockdown derby defeat to Manchester United left it that way throughout the three-and-a-half-month stoppage.

Most consecutive home wins

Anfield was always renowned as a fortress during Liverpool's previous heyday, but even the great teams of their past could not match the dominance Jurgen Klopp's side have showcased on their own patch.

Wednesday's 4-0 thrashing of Crystal Palace was a 23rd successive home win stretching back to last season, surpassing Man City's previous Premier League record of 20 and their own previous top-flight record of 21.

The Reds are also unbeaten in 56 league matches at Anfield, which is second to only Chelsea in the annals of English top-flight history.

Fastest team to beat every other team in the Premier League (24 games)

Liverpool have beaten all comers this season, with a 2-0 win over West Ham United on January 29 completing the set in just their 24th match of the campaign.

For all of their historical dominance and 18 previous titles, Liverpool had never before beaten every single opponent in a top-flight campaign, while in the Premier League era that feat had only been achieved five times.

Manchester City held the previous record for quickest to do this, needing 31 matches, so Liverpool's achievement of doing it in 24 games saw them comfortably set a new mark which may never be beaten.
