PA Wire

Brendan Rodgers oversaw a memorable victory over his former club when a depleted Leicester side condemned Liverpool to their second Premier League defeat of the season at the King Power Stadium.

It was one of the games which saw Liverpool lose crucial ground to Manchester City in the Premier League title race and Klopp’s side must surely now win all their remaining fixtures in order to stand a chance of catching the leaders.

They are set to be boosted by the return of Mohamed Salah, however, with the Premier League’s top scorer in contention to play following his participation in the Africa Cup of Nations.

Here’s everything you need to know before the match this evening.

When is Liverpool vs Leicester?

The match kicks off at 7:45pm GMT on Thursday 10 February at Anfield.

It will be shown live on BT Sport 1, with coverage starting from 7pm. BT Sport customers can also stream the match live and online on the BT Sport app and website.

Confirmed line-ups

Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Jones, Thiago; Jota, Firmino, Diaz

Leicester: Schmeichel; Justin, Amartey, Ndidi, Thomas; Albrighton, Dewsbury-Hall, Soumare, Maddison; Lookman, Daka

Odds

Liverpool: 1/4

Prediction

Leicester are in need of a response but the return of Salah adds an edge to a Liverpool side who have coped well in his absence and are in a good run of form. Liverpool 3-0 Leicester
