Team News

Leicester
Liverpool
  • Facundo Buonanotte is available for selection having missed the 2-2 draw with parent club Brighton.
  • Victor Kristiansen is also expected back for the Foxes, and he could start in place of Luke Thomas at left-back in what may be the only change to the side that drew with Seagulls.
  • Abdul Fatawu is ruled out, while Wout Faes and Jeremy Monga will be assessed.
  • Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold miss out, though the latter is due back next week.
  • Conor Bradley should start again at right-back, while Andy Robertson and Dominik Szoboszlai could return to the starting XI.
  • Darwin Nunez is a doubt due to illness but wouldn't have started anyway.

Prediction

  • Leicester ended an eight-game losing, and goalless, run with a 2-2 draw with Brighton last week. They'll face a much sterner test with the welcome of league leaders Liverpool, and do so having lost their last eight at the King Power Stadium, and having failed to score in all eight defeats, last doing so, coincidentally, in a 2-2 draw with Brighton.
  • Liverpool could well win the league this weekend, though will need Ipswich to beat Arsenal in Sunday's early kick off. The Reds fell to a first away league defeat of the season in their last away match, but have won five of their last six in England's top tier.
  • This should be a routine win for the Reds.
