Liverpool v Leicester betting tips: Can the Reds stretch their lead at the top?

Klopp is likely to stick with the tried and tested formula of the star trio up front. Mo Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane will all be looking to capitalise on the points dropped by City last night to take them one step closer to the league title.

Leicester City will be relieved to have centre-back Harry Maguire back after recovering from a leg injury.

Daniel Amartey remained the only long-term absentee from the Foxes squad after suffering an ankle injury against West Ham in October.

Harvey Barnes has impressed since being recalled from his loan spell at West Brom, and could start the game tonight.

Key Battles

Liverpool may have to play a make-shift defence depending on the fitness of Virgil van Dijk, which is a prospect that Foxes striker Jamie Vardy will be relishing.

Vardy has an incredible goalscoring record against the top six, with his goalscoring stats against Liverpool equally as impressive. He’s netted seven times in eight appearances against the Reds, so their main task will be stopping service to Vardy.

Leicester will be boosted by the return of Maguire to their back-line, and he’ll need to be on form to help shut down the league’s most threatening front-three.

Salah, Mane and Firmino have been clinical, netting 34 between them in the league already. The Foxes defence will have to be on top of their game to stop any of them from scoring.

Liverpool will also need to keep a watchful eye on Barnes. The youngster was on fire in his spell at West Brom, and will be looking to make a lasting impression against one of the big boys should he get game time.

Match Odds

The league leaders are unsurprisingly heavy favourites to win this game and stretch their lead at the top. They’re 2/9 to pick up all three points.

Leicester aren’t fancied to get a result at 11/1, but a Leicester/Draw Double Chance could offer more hope at 29/10.

The Reds have beaten the Foxes 2-1 in the last two games they’ve played, and a 2-1 home win sits at 8/1 with our traders for tonight’s clash.

Salah is the league’s leading scorer for a reason. He’s ice-cool in front of goal, and if you’re backing him to break the deadlock, he’s 5/2. Our traders have priced him at 4/6 to score anytime.

Vardy will be looking to notch another goal against Liverpool, a team he just loves scoring against. He’s 5/2 to score anytime.
