Jurgen Klopp admits Liverpool have to be "close to perfect" to claim another Premier League title but is convinced his team can win all their remaining games.
The Reds begin the final leg of the campaign when they play the first of three top-flight away games inside a week at Fulham on Sunday.
Liverpool - who stand in third place with six matches remaining, two points adrift of champions Manchester City and behind Arsenal only on goal difference - suffered a major setback last weekend when they lost for only the third time in the Premier League this season when beaten 1-0 at home by Crystal Palace.

And while Klopp believes twice missing out in titanic title tussles with City doesn't indicate his team have the experience to get the job done, the Reds boss acknowledges there is now little margin for error.
“When we were in the position we didn't win the league in the end," he said after narrowly missing out in 2019 and 2022. "We lost by a point and stuff like that. What kind of experience is that? We know how to get there – and then don't (win). It's not about that. That is not the main difference.
"It's good to know that you are good and you can cause other teams problems. But the thing is clear: if you want to be champion in the Premier League you have to be close to perfect and if you are not perfect you have to deal with the setbacks in the best possible way or in a perfect way. That is what we are now doing. Now we have to start turning it around."
Klopp added: "I think if we would win all our games there is a good chance we will be champion. If not, there is a good chance someone else will be champion. Maybe we only have to win five but nobody knows. Who would have thought that Arsenal lose against Aston Villa? We have to go there still, it's not one of my favourite away games. But it just happens.
"We all sit here and think, 'okay, yeah. City will win all their games' and that's happened quite frequently but they have a lot of games to play and difficult opponents as well. We don't think about that. We don't think about them. It is just how can we make sure we start winning games again."
While hopes of Europa League glory were ended with aggregate quarter-final defeat to Atalanta on Thursday despite winning 1-0 in Italy, Liverpool have already claimed the League Cup and need just eight more points to secure a top-four berth and a return to the Champions League.
And Klopp has urged his players to concentrate only on the opportunity that now awaits them as they attempt to earn the Reds a record-equalling 20th championship.
“I don't have a lot of qualities but I am always completely honest," he said. "If I don't feel great the players feel it pretty quickly. I cannot really deny or just keep it under the carpet so that means after the game against Palace people ask, 'what do you tell the team now?'. Wait, wait, wait. Give me time to think about it.
"But here we are a few days later and I feel absolutely great, I see the good in the situation where we are. It is fantastic. I'm absolutely positive and after processing things properly, yeah, I'm more than happy with with the situation.
"What should influence us more: the last game, the last week or is it the chance in front of us? I am fully (of the opinion) that there is a next chance for us and we can turn things absolutely around in all departments. We have to make sure we become that opponent for each team again that they don't want to play against – we made it a bit too easy now for a few teams in a row and we should change that.
"We can make it still an outstanding season. It will be a good season but of course how you look at it is in the end is massively influenced by the last part of it. So far – great. Not the last game but the season, and now let's use that. The boys know that I don't tell them things which I don't believe in and I am 100% sure we can really win all of the games we will have from now on but that's not too important as we have to play the next one and that's the most important one."
