Liverpool are gradually but inevitably getting to the edge of Premier League success, and their manager Arne Slot has introduced two changes to his team for this crucial away game against Leicester City.
Just six points lie between the Reds and the Premier League title. Leicester, meanwhile, face a do-or-die scenario—a defeat at the King Power Stadium will see them relegated to the Championship.

With so much at stake, Alisson will be seeking his first clean sheet since the Reds' Champions League visit to Paris. Fortunately for him, he's up against a Leicester side that have scored 27 goals this term—only one team have scored fewer.
Kostas Tsimikas surprisingly keeps his left-back spot, joined by Conor Bradley, Ibrahima Konate, and captain Virgil van Dijk.
The midfield sees Dominik Szoboszlai return to the starting XI. He will be joined by Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister, offering a lively trio in the center of the park.
In attack, Mohamed Salah is continuing his phenomenal season, having already delivered 55 goals and assists combined in competitions. He will be supported by Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo, who also returns to the squad.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is back in the matchday squad and will be available to replace from the bench. Darwin Nunez is also back on the bench after not being included last week due to not feeling 100%.
Interestingly, Federico Chiesa is absent from the nine-man bench.
