Liverpool vs Leicester City
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Anfield
Kick-off: 8pm GMT, tonight
Liverpool's Premier League title chase continues tonight as Jurgen Klopp's table-toppers host Leicester City.
Liverpool have the chance to extend their lead over Man City at the top of the table to seven following Newcastle's shock win over Pep Guardiola's side last night.
While Klopp has a number of injury concerns to deal with, the squad were able to take advantage of an 11-day break without a game and take a warm-weather training trip to Dubai in order to prepare for the challenges ahead.
Liverpool vs Leicester City line-ups and team news
Liverpool XI: Alisson, Wijnaldum, Matip, van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Keita, Mane, Firmino, Shaqiri, Salah
Subs: Fabinho, Lovren, Sturridge, Lallana, Mignolet, Origi, Camacho

Referee: Martin Atkinson (W Yorkshire)
Score prediction: Liverpool 4-2 Leicester
Crystal Palace's narrow 4-3 defeat at Anfield may give visiting teams the confidence to have a go at the table-toppers, especially with Liverpool's defensive injury concerns.
Liverpool should have too much firepower for the Foxes to handle, but expect Jamie Vardy to pose some problems for Klopp's back line.
