Leicester vs Liverpool preview, where the home side is one point away from their relegation being confirmed. They drew against Brighton last week, which was their first positive result in their last 10 matches.
Liverpool, on the other hand, have the potential to mathematically win the Premier League in this game if Arsenal lose to Leicester a few hours before. Liverpool had to rely on a last-minute Virgil Van Dijk header to beat West Ham at Anfield last week. Van Dijk has since confirmed the signing of a new contract, which will keep him at Anfield until 2027.
