Liverpool moved top of the Premier League for the first time this year as Diogo Jota's header and a late Fabinho penalty saw off Watford 2-0. | Sport24news
Jurgen Klopp's men edge two points ahead of Manchester City, who travel to Burnley later on Saturday, having trailed the English champions by 14 points just over two months ago.
Klopp could afford the luxury of leaving Luis Diaz and Sadio Mane on the bench after their exertions on international duty, alongside Trent Alexander-Arnold on his return from injury. Liverpool needed the Brazilian goalkeeper to be at this best for a few seconds that decided the game midway through the first half.
But there was a nervousness around Anfield as Watford refused to wilt and even had a glorious chance to equaliser in the second half.
