Liverpool hosts Leicester City in round 9 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, November 22nd at Anfield (Liverpool)
The reigning champions of the Premier League do not plan to rest on their laurels. Klopp's men will try to defend their title and compete for the Champions League trophy. In the championship, the Reds occupy an intermediate third place with 17 points scored. The main problem of today's Liverpool lies in the weakness of its defensive line (18 goals conceded). Such indicators are due to injuries of leading performers (Van Dijk, Gomez, Robertson, Alexander-Arnold, and Fabinho). Due to the abundance of injuries, those players who rarely appear on the pitch in Liverpool (Shaqiri, Phillips, N. Jones, Milner, and others) began to receive more playing time. The team's game is still dependent on established leaders, such as Salah, Mane, Alisson, Henderson, Firmino, and Jota (the newcomer fits perfectly into the game).

Last year's championship was a big disappointment for the Foxes. Before the forced pause, the team was in third place in the standings. After the resumption of the league, Rogers' men failed and fell out of the Champions League zone. In the current championship, no one will forgive Leicester for such a result. The club is expected to be in the top four. Now it is the first place, outranking its competitors by one point. Leicester is on a streak of three victories in a row (over Arsenal, Leeds, and Wolverhampton). The team has several very strong players - Maddison, Barnes, Vardi, Schmeichel, Caglar, and Tielemans. The newcomers of the club who came during the current season (Cengiz Under, Fofana, and Castagne) look interesting.
The game will be as intense as possible, but the fans are likely to see enough dangerous goal attempts. A victory in this match will give any club a lead in the standings. A draw will give good chances to competitors. Considering the serious personnel turmoil in Liverpool's defense, the Reds will rely on attacking actions. Leicester is also showing good performance in terms of scoring. Therefore, there is every reason to believe in goal extravaganza.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
