Liverpool will look to take another step towards Premier League glory when they lock horns with Leicester City at the King Power Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Arne Slot’s side edged closer to what would be a 20th top flight crown with a last-gasp 2-1 win over West Ham last weekend, in a game that brought up two of my three Anfield selections.
That means the Reds require just six points from their remaining six games to end their wait for a first Premier League title since 2020.
Seeking to tighten their grip on top spot, Liverpool will be expected to get the better of relegation-threatened Leicester on Sunday.
It now looks like only a matter of time before the Foxes' demotion back to the English Championship is confirmed.
That being said, Ruud van Nistelrooy's side did stop the rot last weekend with a spirited 2-2 draw away at Brighton.
How the bookies view it: Light work for Liverpool
Unsurprisingly, Liverpool are short-priced 2/9 (Boylesports) favourites to conquer the King Power on Sunday afternoon.
Leicester – who have lost each of their last six Premier League home games – are a towering 12/1 on Boylesports to triumph, while the draw is also deemed unlikely at 11/2 with the same bookmaker.
Head to head: Foxes tend to falter
Liverpool have taken top honours from each of their last five meetings with Leicester across all competitions, cruising to a 3-0 victory on their last visit to this venue. The Reds were leading at half-time en-route to all three points on that occasion and a repeat here holds plenty of appeal at 4/5 on Boylesports.
Players to watch: Salah to rediscover shooting boots?
Mohamed Salah is currently enduring a dry spell in front of goal but coming up against Leicester’s leaky backline looks like the perfect opportunity to get back among the goals. The Liverpool talisman notched in this season’s reverse fixture and he is a tempting 10/11 (Bet 365) to repeat the trick at the King Power.
Stephy Mavididi – who scored Leicester's first Premier League goal since January last weekend – is a 5/1 anytime goalscorer option with Boylesports on Sunday.
Predicted line-ups
Leicester will be able to call upon Facundo Buonanotte after he was unable to feature against parent club Brighton last time out, while Victor Kristiansen is back in contention following a spell on the sidelines.
Heading into this game, Liverpool’s only two absentees look set to be Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez.
Leicester: Hermansen; Justin, Okoli, Coady, Thomas; Ndidi, Soumare; McAteer, El Khannouss, Mavididi; Vardy
Liverpool: Alisson; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Jota
Anything else catch the eye?
Backing Liverpool to win alongside a clean sheet will bolster the odds up to an eye-catching even-money (1/1) on Boylesports.
The Reds have racked up three points alongside a shutout in a league-high 13 of their 32 Premier League victories this season.
Leicester, on the other hand, have lost without scoring in 14 of their 32 league losses this season, including each of their last six outings at the King Power.
