Liverpool is currently hosting Leicester at Anfield as part of the 18th round of the Premier League. Jurgen Klopp’s team wants to continue its streak of three league victories and is trying to get closer to the top 4.
In the previous round, the Reds came back from the break with a 1:3 away win over Aston Villa, Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and 18-year-old Stefan Bestic scored to their credit. Liverpool, which has become accustomed to fighting for the top in recent years, is currently in sixth place, 15 points away from the leaders Arsenal. The Reds will have to manage without Fabinho who is absent for personal reasons.
On the other hand, Brendan Rodgers’ team returned from the break in a painful way when they were defeated 3:0 by Newcastle. Last season, the Foxes beat Klopp’s team 0:1 in what was one of the only two league losses for the Reds all season. In the second meeting between the two, Liverpool took revenge with 0:2 thanks to a pair of goals by Diogo Jota.
