LIVE: Liverpool v Leicester City | English Premier League

Liverpool face a tough test on Saturday when the Premier League leaders host Leicester City at the 8th round of the league at Anfield Stadium.

Liverpool have had a strong start at the league with seven straight wins that send the Reds top of the league table with 21 points, five points ahead of the second-placed and the defending champions, Manchester City.

Leicester City have a wonderful run at the league this season under Liverpool former manager, Brendan Rodgers, who is expected to receive a warm welcome by Liverpool fans.

“The reception will be good, from my side and from the supporters I think as well, but still it is not a friendly game and that’s what we want to make sure,” Liverpool current manager, Jurgen Klopp, said during the press conference.

Liverpool defenders aim to stop Leicester’s most dangerous player, Jamie Vardy, who scored twice during his team’s 5-0 victory over Newcastle United last week.

Klopp added “”In general he is an incredible player, for years already, and if he gets the service he will be a proper threat and we have to make sure that will not happen that often. It works in the first place to avoid these passes,”
