Football commentary Liverpool - Leicester in Premier League

An An |

Football commentary on the Liverpool - Leicester match in round 18 of the Premier League 2024-2025 season.

Overview

Liverpool are still firmly at the top of the Premier League table with impressive form, alongside the excellence of Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian striker has scored 15 goals and 11 assists after 16 matches. In Liverpool's 6-3 victory over Tottenham, Salah left his mark with a double.

Liverpool have scored at least 2 goals in every home game in the Premier League this season, except for a 0-1 loss to Nottingham Forest in mid-September. They were held to a 2-2 draw by Fulham in their most recent home game, after being reduced to 10 men.

Liverpool's current success is also built on the most solid defense in the league with only 16 goals conceded in 16 matches. The absence of Konate in recent times has not affected The Kop's defensive ability too much.

Meanwhile, Leicester City have come back to earth with two heavy defeats against Wolves and Newcastle without scoring a goal. The "Foxes" defense has exposed many errors and promises to have difficulty against Liverpool's attack. After the opening matches, new coach Ruud Van Nistelrooy is gradually feeling the pressure.

Liverpool have won their last four games against Leicester in all competitions, including a 3-1 home win in the Carabao Cup in September.

In the Premier League, The Kop are on a four-match winning streak against the Foxes, keeping two clean sheets in the process. Overall, Liverpool have not lost in their last 12 home games against the Foxes.

Human resources situation

Liverpool will definitely be without Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley due to injury. In addition, the home team will almost certainly have a strong lineup.

On the other side of the front line, Leicester will travel to Anfield without any major injury concerns, with the exception of long-term absentees Issahaku Fatawu and Ricardo Pereira.

Expected lineup:

Liverpool: Alisson, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Alexander-Arnold, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Salah, Gakpo, Gravenberch, Diaz.

Leicester: Ward, Faes, Cody, Kristiansen, Justin, Mavididi, Choudhury, Ayew, Winks, Soumare, Vardy.

The match between Liverpool and Leicester takes place at 3:00 a.m. on January 27 (Vietnam time).
