Will Leicester City vs Liverpool on TV? Kick-off time, live streams, VAR broadcast test
Liverpool will seek revenge for last season’s loss to Leicester City at the King Power Stadium
Liverpool have a chance of claiming their seventh consecutive Premier League victory against Leicester City tonight.
Jurgen Klopp’s side will know all too well, but three points will do them no good if they keep pushing for Champions League qualification, while the same goes for the struggling hosts to avoid relegation.
Leicester are currently two points behind 17th-placed Everton with one game to play. If they pick up three points they could climb out of the bottom three but will face a Liverpool side who appear to have turned the tide in recent weeks.
It promises to be an exciting affair for everyone involved, but the Reds will be looking to capitalize on their impressive form to secure another win. For everything you need to know ahead of this game, read our definitive guide to Monday’s session below.

What are the first news on the Leicester-Liverpool team?
Liverpool are left without five first-team players as they prepare for their 36th Premier League match of the 2022/23 season. Calvin Ramsay, Naby Keita, Roberto Firmino Stefan Bajcetic and Thiago are all out, with three of the aforementioned players unavailable until next season.
Firmino and Keita, who are due to leave the club this summer, could play an important role in the two games following Monday’s one. Klopp gave an update on the pair on Friday, telling reporters: No, they haven’t trained as a team yet. I saw Bobby in training yesterday and it looks like he’s almost there, but I don’t think he’ll be there this weekend. If I walk out of here and he attends the session, I’d be surprised. I think we will start with him as a team after the Leicester game. And Naby, no.
Leicester will be without striker Kelechi Iheanacho, who has missed his side’s last two games through injury and will not be fit for the game against Liverpool. However, Portugal full-back Ricardo Pereira could return after his short absence.
Providing an update to the roster on Friday afternoon, Smith told reporters: “No one has opted out of the roster. Rici [Ricardo Pereira] is back in full training now, so we are who we are. “He [Iheanacho] is also due to train early next week, not later. We thought he’d only have two playing days before the Newcastle game, but he’s ahead of schedule. “
The Foxes’ defensive trio of James Justin, Jannik Vestergaard and Ryan Bertrand has been out for a long time.
