Liverpool play Leicester City on Sunday at Anfield in a big Premier League showdown. The Foxes, just like early in the 2019-20 season, are title challengers and getting points at Anfield will prove they are the real deal.
Jurgen Klopp has injuries to key players as Joe Gomez joined the long-term injury list during the November international break. Joel Matip is back and Fabinho and Thiago will be assessed on the day. However, Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold are already ruled out.
Making matters worse is Mohamed Salah is still in Egypt after testing positive for COVID-19.
