Leicester city welcomed league leaders Liverpool to the king power stadium on Saturday noon. The foxes were without star striker Jamie Vardy who misses out on suspension as they went into battle against Jurgen klopp’s Liverpool who were yet to concede a single goal in three matches so far this season

Leicester city vs Liverpool Lineup

LIVERPOOL (4-3-3): Alisson; Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez, Andrew Robertson; James Milner, Jordan Henderson, Georginio Wijnaldum; Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane.

LEICESTER CITY (4-5-1): Kasper Schmeichel; Ricardo Pereira, Ben Chilwell, Harry Maguire, Wes Morgan; James Maddison, Nampalys Mendy, Rachid Ghezzal, Marc Albrighton, Wilfred Ndidi; Demarai Gray.

Liverpool needed next to no introduction as they let loose the trio of Firmino , salah and Sadio mane against the foxes. Firmino was the first to get in on the act as the Brazilian sent a direct shot to Schmeichel who beat the ball to Mohammed salah’s path, only for the last season’s best player to miss a sitter in the opening minutes.

Liverpool however needed just 10′ minutes to hit the ground running through Sadio Mane after been found by a superb Andrew Robertson.

Leicester city soon grew into the game as they began causing all sort of problem for the league leaders, with Maddison sending a flyer towards goal. The foxes had quite a few chances majorly from distance to draw the game level but couldn’t help but fall to yet another goal. This time it was an unmarked Roberto Firmino who found the net from a James Milner corner minutes before the end of the first half.

Liverpool were however nullified by a rather fired up foxes in the second half. New signing Becker Allison was found guilty as he ended his very own three games clean sheet run. The goal keeper came out to the right edge of his box to deal with a poor back-pass from Van Dijk, only to lose possesion to iheanacho who sliped a pass back to the middle of the box for Ghezzal to bundle in his first league goal for the club.

Leicester city threw all they had at the Merseyside reds but couldn’t find another to steal a point from the game.

The win sees Liverpool keep their spot at the top of the league table with Spurs, chelsea and Watford yet to play for the weekend. Jurgen will be happy his team made it four wins from four but would caution the new goal keeper whose overflow of confidence had him at a disadvantage against a resilient Leicester city team
