Liverpool will be looking to maintain their good run of form this afternoon when they take on Leicester City at Anfield in the Premier League.

The Reds will head into the match against the Foxes on the back of a 4-3 victory over FC Salzburg at Anfield in the Champions League.

Jurgen Klopp’s side are at the top of the Premier League table at the moment with 21 points from seven matches, as many as five points clear of second-placed Manchester City.

Leicester are going strong as well, and under former Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers, they have lofty ambitions.

The Foxes currently find themselves third in the Premier League table with 14 points from seven matches and will be determined to win at Anfield.

This is how Liverpool and Leicester will line up in their Premier League game this afternoon:

Liverpool XI: Adrian, Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Milner, Wijnaldum, Mane, Salah, Firmino.

Subs: Kelleher, Keita, Gomez, Henderson, Lallana, Origi, Elliott.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Pereira, Soyuncu, Evans, Chilwell, Tielemans, Barnes,Praet, Ndidi, Maddison, Vardy.

Meanwhile, Leicester summer signing Ayoze Perez has taken to Twitter to express his excitement ahead of the match.

The 26-year-old, who can operate as a forward or as an attacking midfielder, joined the Foxes from Newcastle United in the summer transfer window for a fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £30m.
