Season overview
The season was notably difficult, as the majority of games were played behind closed doors due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[1] and all three of the club's senior central defenders sustained long-term injuries.[2] The team's early form was creditable and, on 22 November 2020, they broke the club record for longest unbeaten run at home in the league (which had previously stood at 63) with a 3–0 win over Leicester City.[3] However, the run ended on 21 January 2021 following a 1–0 defeat to Burnley; it had stood at 68, the second-longest unbeaten home run in English top-flight history, behind Chelsea's run of 86 games between March 2004 and October 2008.[4] A tough period followed as Liverpool suffered a run of six consecutive defeats at Anfield.[5] The team, however, was fortunately able to reverse their fortunes, winning eight of their final ten league games, which included goalkeeper Alisson scoring a stoppage-time winner against West Bromwich Albion (the first goal ever scored by a Liverpool goalkeeper in the 129-year history of the club),[6] and thus finished third, qualifying for next season's UEFA Champions League.[7]
