Liverpool can confirm their place at the top of the Premier League Fair Play table this weekend – and secure a cash bonus for their young supporters in the process.

The Reds can seal their place as the best-behaved team in the top flight when they take on Middlesbrough on Sunday. Jurgen Klopp’s side are leading Swansea City in the table at present, having picked up just 54 yellow cards, and no reds, in their 37 games so far this season.

Topping the Fair Play table will secure the club a £20,000 prize fund, and Liverpool plan to ensure that that is shared out among their season-ticket holders aged between 17 and 21.

The decision was made after a meeting between club and fan representatives.

Liverpool won the award in 2015, and that cash was distributed between around 300 young supporters who received a discount on the cost of their season tickets, worth around £66. The Reds plan the same initiative if they are to win again this year.

Topping the Fair Play table used to guarantee teams a place in the qualifying rounds of the Europa League, but that idea was scrapped in 2015. Instead, UEFA now awards cash prizes to be spent on Fair Play or Respect-themed initiatives.

It is estimated that Liverpool have around 270 fans who would qualify for the season-ticket reduction this summer, so each would earn a discount of around £75.
