Predicted Liverpool XI: Leicester City (A)

Club World Cup champions Liverpool will hope to continue their winning run going when they face Leicester City away at the King Power Stadium later today in a crunch Premier League clash.

Jurgen Klopp’s side returned from Qatar on Sunday as the champions of the world. However, we all know the city of Liverpool wants this team to win the league as soon as possible.

By being 10 points ahead of their opponents with a game in hand, the Reds can establish a commanding lead if they beat the Foxes.

It won’t be easy though, as Leicester are coming into this game off the back of a defeat at Manchester City. Furthermore, we have seen them being very good at their home ground.

In terms of team news, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who picked up an ankle injury in the Club World Cup Final, is out for at least four weeks. Joel Matip, Fabinho and Dejan Lovren are in a good way but are not available for selection until the new year.

That being said, here’s how we think Klopp may line his XI up:
