Liverpool head to the King Power Stadium on Monday in pursuit of a seventh straight victory to boost their Champions League hopes.
The Reds find themselves four points adrift of the top four, having played as many games as Newcastle and Manchester United ahead of them, and so they can ill afford to drop points against a Leicester side whose hopes of avoiding relegation are hanging by a thread.
Here’s how Jurgen Klopp could set up for this one.
GK: Alisson – The Brazilian cannot afford to concede a single goal between now and the end of the season if he wants to share the Golden Glove award with David de Gea.
RB: Trent Alexander-Arnold – After five straight games with at least one assist, Alexander-Arnold has not created a goal in his last two outings and is still waiting to hit double figures for the season.
CB: Ibrahima Konate – Having firmly displaced Joel Matip in the team, Konate needs as many minutes as possible as he seeks to return to his pre-injury form.
CB: Virgil van Dijk – Van Dijk has done his best to calm expectations from fans as Liverpool chase a top-four finish that looked impossible just a few months ago.
LB: Andy Robertson – Brought off towards the end of the win over Brentford, Robertson’s legs should be a little fresher than most.

DM: Fabinho – Despite picking up his tenth yellow card of the season last time out, Fabinho will not serve a suspension as the Premier League wipe players’ disciplinary records after the 32nd game of the season.
CM: Curtis Jones – A huge resurgence from Jones has helped inspire Liverpool’s sensational end to the season.
CM: Jordan Henderson – A knock sent Henderson to the bench against Brentford but he should be fit enough to start here.
RW: Mohamed Salah – Salah bagged his 30th goal of the season in all competitions last time out, hitting the milestone for the fourth time in his Liverpool career. Should he match that feat next year, he’ll tie the record held by Ian Rush and Roger Hunt.
ST: Cody Gakpo – After playing in midfield against Brentford, expect Gakpo to return to a favourable advanced role here.
LW: Luis Diaz – Klopp has an abundance of options on the left wing but could opt to turn to Diaz, who played the final 25 minutes last time out.
