KICK off: 13 February 14:30
Information: There are minor question marks over the fitness of Thiago Alcantara and Fabinho after both missed Liverpool training earlier this week, while Georginio Wijnaldum was pictured training away from the rest of the squad. As yet there is no further indication of injuries for any of the trio and so they will all be expected to start on Saturday, although there could be changes elsewhere – including a debut for deadline-day signing Ozan Kabak. Liverpool have had almost a full week to prepare for this match and so Kabak should now be ready to feature, likely alongside Fabinho at centre-back, to release Jordan Henderson back into midfield. The six-day break will have been welcomed for a squad Klopp acknowledged was looking weary, although it has not eased his injury issues much with Naby Keita, Diogo Jota, Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip all still sidelined. Leicester have plenty of injury problems themselves too, with in-form full-back James Justin the latest player on the treatment table after suffering a knee injury in the FA Cup win over Brighton. The full extent of the injury is yet to be confirmed, but Justin is expected to miss this match, leaving Christian Fuchs likely to fill in on the left with Timothy Castagne also among the absentees. Ayoze Perez was also amongst the walking wounded against Brighton, picking up a shin injury, so he could join Wesley Fofana, Dennis Praet and Wes Morgan on the sidelines. There was better news in midweek with the return of Wilfred Ndidi, though, while the likes of Kasper Schmeichel, Harvey Barnes, Jonny Evans and James Maddison should come back into the starting XI. Maddison has had a direct hand in six goals from his last six Premier League home games, which is as many as he had managed in his previous 31 at the King Power.
