All we know for sure is that the game will kick off at 8pm GMT, and that it is on. They’ve won two of the last three league meetings, with 3-1 and 1-0 victories at the King Power in 2021. Ibrahima Konate is back from his post World Cup final break and is on the bench. But of course it will be a massive loss and may he rest in peace.” Their line-up has a lot of speed, when they play against us they kick the ball long, so we don’t know exactly, we have to be ready for everything. You see that Leicester had a difficult start into the season like we did, but they found a way into it. We lost the last one against them, and I can feel that if I think about it. “When you come to the biggest teams, you need the maximum concentration and commitment. It was tough, so we need to get focused and get our concentration right from the off. He has size, physicality, can shoot from outside the box, has a good nose for finishing, is quick, a good dribbler. You know our situation, and we cannot just pick players and put them on top and top and top all the time. But that’s a positive start by the hosts.

This match will be shown on Sky Sports Main Event and Premier League channels. If he can keep this form up, then the critics will soon be silenced. It's Oxlade-Chamberlain who is beyond the Leicester defence after a Ward clearance hits Salah in the head to start the move. 27th min: Salah has the ball in the net but the flag is rightly up for offside. 54th min: Nunez drives at the Leicester defence and slips in a lovely through ball for Salah but the Egyptian can only pass his attempt beyond the far post. Alexander-Arnold's low cross is met by Faes, but his attempt to divert the ball out of play instead forces it up and over Ward and in at the far post. 61st min: Dewsbury-Hall meets a ball in from the right-hand side with his head and he should do so much better than to nod it well wide of the post. 1 77th min: Iheanacho sneaks in behind and sends a low left-footed cross into a dangerous area, forcing Matip to put the ball out for a corner. 2

Faes became just the fourth player in Premier League history to score two own goals in the same game with two defensive blunders in the space of seven minutes ...

[Fabinho](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/176287/Fabinho), initially struggled to mount a meaningful response to the early concession. "He has come back a bit rusty, not playing at the World Cup with Belgium, and it's going to take him time to get back to speed. [Newcastle United](/soccer/team?id=361) on Boxing Day, Leicester got off to a dream start when taking the lead in just the fourth minute. Stunningly, Faes soon doubled his tally. We have to take the result momentum but have to play better in our next match against Brentford." Liverpool stay in sixth position in the Premier League table but close to within two points of fourth-placed Tottenham.

Two own goals from Wout Faes helped Liverpool come from behind to beat Leicester City 2-1 at Anfield on Friday night.

Nunez is through on goal and dinks the ball over Ward but is denied by the post, only for it to bounce back towards the chasing-back Faes who looks to clear the ball over the bar, but can only steer it into the roof of his own net. Alexander-Arnold delivers a low cross in a dangerous area, but there is absolutely no danger in the box as Ward prepares to collect, but Faes takes a swipe at the ball at the near post and it flicks behind him and over the head of Ward. The ball falls to Nunez who returns the ball to Salah and the Egyptian makes no mistake with the finish, but he had drifted offside. The first was poor defending, there was a clear call from his goalkeeper to let the ball trickle into his hands, but Faes completely ignored him and went to clear a harmless ball, before it spun off his boot and into Ward’s net in comical fashion. Nunez slipped Salah through with a great defence-splitting ball, but with only Ward to beat, he got the execution all wrong. Faes had other ideas, though, and chose to ignore loud calls from his goalkeeper to leave the ball, took a swipe at it, and could only watch on agonisingly as the ball spun off his boot, over the head of Ward, and bounced across the line at the back post.
