Liverpool have drawn five of their ten Premier League home games this season and look short-priced favourites to overcome Leicester on Merseyside.

Leicester have had a dip in results and gone four games without a win but they have been generally excellent under Claude Puel, who has lifted them from 14th to eighth.

The Foxes are well placed to take on the big clubs thanks to the pace of Jamie Vardy and Demarai Gray, and they could follow in the footsteps of Everton and West Brom, who took a point from their recent games at Anfield.

Recommendation
Leicester or draw double chance
