Liverpool face Leicester City in the Premier League tonight as Brendan Rodgers returns to Anfield for the second time this season.

The two sides met in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup in December, with Liverpool winning on penalties, but Leicester claimed three points in the reverse Premier League fixture with a 1-0 win at the King Power Stadium.

Liverpool defeated Cardiff City in the FA Cup on Saturday as Harvey Elliott scored on his return from injury and Luis Diaz impressed on his debut, while the Reds could be further boosted by the returning Mohamed Salah from the Africa Cup of Nations.

Leicester, meanwhile, suffered a humbling 4-1 defeat to Nottingham Forest as the FA Cup holders crashed out at the fourth-round stage. Rodgers questioned his players after the match and will be looking for a response, with his side 10th in the Premier League table but with several games in hand.

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

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

Odds
