Liverpool want to keep their Premier League title hopes when they host Leicester on Thursday night, but cannot afford to drop points as they look to hunt down Manchester City.
The Reds are 12 points behing City, but do have two games in hand, so the title race is not quite done and dusted yet, if they can continue to pick up wins.
The Foxes are having a diappointing season, not helped by a lot of injury problems, and are languishing down in 12th in the table.
They too have games in hand on their rivals, though and could climb to 10th with an upset win at Anfield.
