Liverpool Predicted Lineup vs. Leicester City: Premier League

Liverpool visit Leicester City at King Power Stadium hoping to become Premier League champions on Sunday.

Arne Slot's side could clinch their second ever Premier League trophy with a win vs. Leicester City plus an Arsenal defeat in their trip to Ipswich Town. Even if it doesn't happen this week, the Reds lifting the league trophy in Slot's inaugural season in charge appears to be just a matter of time.

Leicester will be looking to play spoiler. However, the Foxes are bound for relegation and recently became the first team in English soccer history to lose eight straight home league games without scoring a single goal.

There's only six games remaining in Liverpool's season and Slot will likely trot out his strongest XI at least until the 2024-25 Premier League rests in their trophy cabinet. Trent Alexander-Arnold was spotted at training this week and could return to the pitch soon in what could be his final weeks as a Liverpool player, with speculation linking him with Real Madrid getting louder by the day.

Here's how Liverpool could lineup vs. Leicester City looking to become Premier League champions.
