Liverpool are in need of another three points tomorrow evening as they aim to keep alive their hopes of finishing in the Champions League.
Trailing both Newcastle and Manchester United by four points, the Reds must ensure they win each of their remaining Premier League games to stand a chance of ending up in Europe's elite competition.
The first of Liverpool's final fixtures sees them head to the King Power Stadium to face a Leicester side battling to avoid relegation. The Foxes claimed a win over Jurgen Klopp's side on home soil last campaign and will be looking for a repeat of this impressive display.

Well-rested going into this encounter, there is little need for Klopp to rotate given the importance of putting pressure on the sides above them and the time of the season. As a result, one would expect a full-strength defence featuring Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk as the two central defenders while Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold occupy the full-back positions.
Left on the bench for last Saturday's home win at the expense of Brentford, captain Jordan Henderson could be recalled to potentially partner Curtis Jones and Fabinho. Jones has been in fine form of late and is unlikely to lose his place, meanwhile Fabinho is the obvious third option in the continued absences of Naby Keita and Thiago Alcantara.
Darwin Nunez may well have started versus the Bees, but I can see the Uruguayan dropping back down to the bench for this fixture to allow a front three of Luis Diaz on the left, Cody Gakpo down the middle and Mohamed Salah starring on the right flank.
Diogo Jota and Harvey Elliott will serve as effective options from the bench should the Reds be in need of a cutting edge during proceedings, with the left-footed duo capable of offering flair during attacking transitions.
Liverpool predicted XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Jones, Fabinho, Henderson, Diaz, Gakpo, Salah.
