Having struggled for goals recently, Jurgen Klopp’s team will be looking forward to taking on a Foxes side they have put nine past in just the last three encounters – particularly because of Leicester’s defensive absentees.
Indeed, Rodgers’ men have only kept two clean sheets against top-half opposition this season, conceding 18 times in those 11 fixtures.
On the other hand, the champions’ well-publicised injury crisis in defence should offer plenty of opportunities for Jamie Vardy and team mates, who have not failed to score in any of their last 13 fixtures.
