Liverpool take on the visitors Leicester in the 1/16-finals of English Football League Cup. The match will be played on Wednesday, September 27th at Anfield (Liverpool).
The Merseysiders couldn't salvage the previous season, ending up without major trophies or cups, and most importantly, they failed to return to the top 4 in the Premier League. As a result, the club missed out on the Champions League and is now gaining international experience in the Europa League - they played against LASK on Thursday and managed to secure a victory despite conceding first. However, it's undoubtedly important for Klopp to achieve success on the domestic front. They have been actively accumulating points in the Premier League's early stages, conceding first to Bournemouth, Newcastle, and Wolverhampton, but showing great determination to turn the matches around. West Ham also succumbed in the final third of the game.

Leicester clearly doesn't want to return to the Premier League too soon. The Foxes quickly regressed. Brendan Rodgers was not as successful here as Claudio Ranieri (they even lost the battle for the fourth place), but he lasted longer than the Italian, winning several trophies and playing in European competitions multiple times. However, the season before last was unsuccessful, and this warning sign went unheeded. Instead, they let go of several key players and didn't actively seek replacements. The result was a predictable relegation. Of course, after such an outcome, key players scattered. Nevertheless, Vardy stayed, as did Ndidi, Iheanacho, and several others, and they recruited quite a few new faces. Enzo Maresca, who started his career as a player in England, has proven himself to be a valuable addition. Their 1-0 victory over Bristol City marked their seventh win in eight matches.
In the 2022-2023 season, all three of the most recent matches favored the Reds. The Merseysiders are logically considered the clear favorites in this matchup. However, they may not be as keen on this tournament, so we'll go with both teams to score.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
