Brendan Rodgers has had three bites at besting his former club and so far has failed each time, including a 4-0 thrashing at the King Power last season. Naturally, Liverpool are no where near the side they were then so the fourth time just might be the charm for Leicester, especially with Jamie Vardy and Wilfred Ndidi returning. Jürgen Klopp’s side need to avoid a third successive defeat with Chelsea, West Ham and Everton all excellently placed to rise above them should they slip further. Fixtures and pressure continue to pile up for Klopp as Liverpool face RB Leizpig in Budapest on Tuesday. A quick Champions League exit could boost chances of another crack next season but morale could be damaged further in the process. Graham Searles
