Leicester City vs Liverpool

Liverpool head to the King Power Stadium to face a mid-table Leicester City in a mouth-watering Premier League encounter.

Despite putting three goals past reigning Premier League champions Manchester City on Boxing Day, Leicester City came up empty-handed as they fell to a dismal 6-3 defeat at the Etihad. Interestingly, the ‘Foxes’ have now failed to win their last two domestic fixtures despite scoring precisely three goals on each occasion (D1, L1), including a heartbreaking penalty shoot-out elimination to Liverpool in last week’s Carabao Cup action. However, Leicester brushed Liverpool aside with a comprehensive 3-1 triumph in their most recent Premier League H2H back in February, as they pursue back-to-back league wins over this opposition for the first time in the 21st century. Adding to their confidence, Brendan Rodgers’ men have racked up two successive Premier League home victories ahead of this fixture and could make it three home league wins in a row for the first time since December 2019.

On the other hand, Liverpool hit back twice to hold Tottenham Hotspur to a 2-2 away draw last time out before a COVID-19 outbreak in the Leeds United camp forced the postponement of their Boxing Day showdown at the weekend. Since the Premier League returned to action following November’s international break, the ‘Reds’ have gone unbeaten in all seven league fixtures (W6, D1), keeping four clean sheets in the process. Despite Jurgen Klopp’s well-documented ‘all-out-attack’ approach, only Man City (11) have registered more Premier League shutouts than Liverpool (10) so far this season. Meanwhile, the Merseyside heavyweights have notched up a league-high 28 Premier League away goals this term, scoring at least eight more than any other side. Topically, they remain one of just two Premier League teams to have hit double digits in both halves of play on the road to date.
