Leicester could face relegation as Liverpool look to dominate in upcoming match

Liverpool are edging closer to potentially clinching the Premier League title this Sunday as they face Leicester at the King Power Stadium. The Reds are currently leading by 13 points following their recent win against West Ham.

Leicester, on the other hand, are struggling in the relegation zone with just 18 points from 32 games.

Although Leicester managed to break their losing streak with a draw against Brighton last weekend, they still face a tough challenge as they are 17 points away from safety and need a win to avoid relegation.

Team news

Leicester defender Wout Faes is set to miss the game, while Abdul Fatawu and Harry Souttar are out until next season. Midfielder Harry Winks is unlikely to feature following a disagreement with the manager.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has returned to training after an ankle injury but might start on the bench. Darwin Nunez and Joe Gomez are dealing with illness and a thigh issue respectively.

The stats

Leicester, led by Ruud van Nistelrooy, have not managed to score any goals in their home games at the King Power Stadium since the beginning of December.
Leicester, led by Ruud van Nistelrooy, have not managed to score any goals in their home games at the King Power Stadium since the beginning of December.

Leicester have not won any of their last 10 games and have lost eight consecutive home matches without scoring. They have also conceded two or more goals in nine straight home games.

Liverpool have bounced back with two wins in three league matches after their recent setbacks in Europe. Their only league loss in the previous 28 games was against Fulham.

Prediction

Leicester's relegation seems imminent and they will struggle against the dominant Liverpool. The Reds have a strong away record this season and have been scoring consistently against Leicester.

Liverpool's attacking prowess is expected to overpower Leicester's shaky defense, who have had difficulties finding the net recently. With Liverpool's solid form and Leicester's struggling attack, a comfortable win for the Reds is on the cards.
