Leicester have won just two of their last 12 Premier League games against Liverpool (D1 L9). They’ve had three runs of three consecutive defeats in this run (including a current one), but they’ve not lost four straight league games against the Reds since between 1987 and 1996.

Liverpool overcame an early goal from Leicester to win by three in a professional win on their title-hunting journey.

Arne Slot was full of praise for Van Nistelrooy in his pre-match press conference, with the Liverpool boss having come up against the former Man United striker in the Netherlands.
