    Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 17 PL games. Klopp's side could become today the first ever English side to score 3+ goals in seven consecutive away games
  • PRVW
    This is the first PL match between these two teams since February 2020. Last time they meet, the local team won 3-0 to end 'The Reds' club-record 44-game unbeaten run.
  • PRVW
    Jurgen Klopp makes four changes from Manchester City's draw. James Milner switches from right back to central midfield with Trent Alexander-Arnold fit again to play down the flank. Naby Keita and Robert Firmino also are handed starts whilst Caoimhin Kelleher starts in goal.
  • PRVW
    Claudio Ranieri makes three changes from the defeat against Leeds. Adam Masina and Craig Cathcart start to create a solid defence. Cucho Hernandez comes into the team to play in what looks a three-pronged attack with Ismaila Sarr and Dennis.
