Is Liverpool vs Leicester City on TV? How to watch Premier League match - live stream, highlights, KO time

Liverpool look to be finally picking up some consistency this season after making it three consecutive Premier League wins as they beat Aston Villa on Boxing Day. Meanwhile, Leicester City are desperate to bounce back from a 3-0 thrashing by Newcastle United and have won their last three games on the road - scoring eight goals and conceding zero.

The two teams will now meet in their final match of 2022 at Anfield, where Liverpool have struggled to maintain their spectacular home record. Tonight’s clash will be the fifth time Brendan Rodgers has returned to Anfield since joining Leicester in 2019 but has only managed a single point since.

Despite the Reds’ difficult start to the campaign, they could finish the year in the Premier League’s top six and could go within a point of Manchester United if they can claim a victory tonight. Meanwhile, a win for the visitors could take them into the top half of the table.
