Welcome to our live coverage of Liverpool's clash against Leicester City in the Premier League..

The Reds are hoping to build on a 3-1 victory over Aston Villa on Boxing Day when they return to Anfield to host Brendan Rodgers' struggling Foxes, whose two-match winning streak was ended in brutal fashion by Newcastle with a 3-0 defeat.

Ibrahima Konate is available again after returning from the World Cup but Roberto Firmino is not ready to return after injury. Meanwhile, new signing Cody Gakpo is not available for selection until next week at the earliest.
