Liverpool legend John Aldridge sees Leicester City as their nearest title threat this season.
The Reds now sit 11 points clear at the top of the table, with the Foxes having a game in hand.
Aldridge wrote for the Independent: What this Liverpool side have got that is different to last season is a winning mentality and a belief that comes from their Champions League win last June, but Brighton gave them some problems and other teams will look at the game and take encouragement from it.
Liverpool will slip up if they turn in performances like they did and I'm not just looking at Manchester City as title rivals at this point.
Leicester's form has to be respected and I fully expect them to beat Everton today and ensure Liverpool's lead at the top remains at just eight points.
Anyone who suggests the title race is over on December 1st needs to be careful because you could see the tension creeping into Liverpool's players and it was felt in the stands at Anfield as Brighton pushed for a point in the final minutes."
