Leicester Team Analysis
Leicester are staring at relegation, sitting 17 points from safety with six matches left. A defeat to Liverpool would seal their drop to the Championship. Ruud van Nistelrooy’s appointment hasn’t improved fortunes, with the Foxes enduring a record-breaking home slump in English top-flight history. They’ve lost their last eight home league games without scoring, a run no other team has matched.
Only six clubs have ever lost nine home games in a row in the top tier, most recently Southampton this campaign. Leicester’s only route to survival requires six straight wins and West Ham collecting just one more point, but it’s almost an impossible scenario. However, the Foxes showed some life with a 2-2 draw at Brighton, ending both their scoreless streak and run of eight consecutive Premier League losses. But upsetting Liverpool seems highly improbable in current form.
Leicester Line-Up Prediction
Facundo Buonanotte returns after missing out against Brighton, but Fatawu, Faes, and Monga remain long-term absentees for Leicester.
Possible starting lineup: Hermansen; Justin, Coady, Okoli, Thomas; Ndidi, Soumare; Mavididi, El Khannouss, McAteer; Vardy.

Liverpool Team Analysis
Liverpool has suffered just two league defeats this season, including a rare loss to Fulham. That result marked their first away defeat, but it’s unlikely to become a trend. Arne Slot’s side remains the Premier League’s best away team, collecting 35 points from 16 road games. They could clinch the title this weekend if Arsenal lose and they beat Leicester.
However, a more realistic scenario sees them sealing the trophy at Anfield next weekend against Spurs. Although if the Reds lift the trophy this weekend, it will mark just the sixth time in history that a team has won the title with five matches left. Notably, Liverpool also set the record in 2019–20, securing the championship with seven games to spare in their dominant title-winning campaign.
Line Up Prediction
Trent and Gomez remain out but close to return; however, Nunez faces a longer recovery spell.
Possible starting lineup: Alisson; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Diaz, Szoboszlai; Jota.

Leicester vs Liverpool Betting Tips & Predictions
After dissecting the chances of each team, here are our best Leicester vs Liverpool prediction:
- Corner Handicap: Liverpool (-4) @ 1.95 (19/20) odds — Liverpool average 6.42 corners per game, nearly double Leicester’s 3.81 in the league. The Foxes also concede 6.19 corners per match, highlighting their defensive struggles. With Liverpool’s attacking depth and dominance in possession, we expect a high corner count again that could exceed four.
- Liverpool to score over 2.5 goals @ 1.80 (4/5) odds – Goals will likely to be plenty here unlike in our Arsenal vs Brentford prediction. Liverpool have scored three goals in each of their last three matches versus Leicester. The Reds lead the league with 74 goals scored, showcasing their dominant attacking form. Leicester, meanwhile, have the second-worst defence, conceding 72 goals so far this season. So, we expect Slot’s team to tally above two goals at the King Power stadium.
- Mohammed Salah to Score @ 1.90 (8/9) odds – Mohamed Salah has powered Liverpool’s title charge with record-breaking contributions this campaign, and he’s poised to net the Foxes on Sunday. He’s scored in all five league games against promoted sides, netting seven total goals. No player has ever scored in six separate matches against promoted clubs in one season. Salah has contributed 45 league goals (27 goals, 18 assists), setting a 38-game season record. Only Cole and Shearer have ever managed more, but in longer, 42-game campaigns.
