Liverpool vs. Leicester City Preview (What To Know Before Betting)

Liverpool vs. Leicester City

Leicester City, the current leaders in the Championship, are set for a quick return to Premier League action as they face Liverpool at Anfield in the EFL Cup third round on Wednesday.

While Jurgen Klopp’s squad hasn’t had to focus on this competition yet, the Foxes have already secured victories over Burton Albion and Tranmere Rovers, both with 2-0 scores, to earn their visit to Merseyside.

Liverpool secured consecutive 3-1 victories, first against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League and then against LASK Linz in the Europa League. They repeated this scoreline when hosting West Ham United, but for a change this season, Jurgen Klopp’s team didn’t need a comeback.

Although the Irons briefly unsettled their more illustrious opponents with Jarrod Bowen’s brave header off Virgil van Dijk, striking the inside of the far post, Mohamed Salah had already opened the scoring from the penalty spot. In the second half, Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota found the net in front of the Kop.

What to remember – Liverpool vs. Leicester City

If Leicester maintains their current form, they could potentially face Premier League encounters with Liverpool in the 2024-25 season. However, for the moment, it’s reasonable to anticipate that Klopp’s side will provide the Championship leaders with a stern test.

Liverpool has been consistently producing multiple-goal performances in recent weeks, and they are likely to face few obstacles on their path to advancing to the fourth round.
