This will be dubbed as Brendan Rodgers vs his old club as the Northern Irishman prepares to take on a different Liverpool side that knocked them out of the EFL Cup this week. The Foxes put all their eggs into the Carabao Cup basket but lost to a highly weakened Liverpool side in the quarter finals. A 3-1 lead was squandered as Takumi Minamino equalized late to hand Liverpool a chance at penalties, which they won 5-3.

The Reds, on the other hand, are boosted by the fact that their Boxing Day fixture against Leeds United has been postponed due to a Covid-19 outbreak in the Peacock’s camp. This gives them ample rest to field their strongest available team against Leicester on 28th. The Reds lost 3-1 last season in the league at the King Power Stadium but would want to change that this time around.
