Ruud van Nistelrooy's team come into the clash after two successive defeats, leaving them just two points above the drop zone in 17th.

If things were not already difficult enough, Van Nistelrooy has been hit by the blow that first-choice keeper Mads Hermansen is not fit enough to return for the match with the Reds.
It was expected that former Liverpool keeper Danny Ward would continue in goal, but according to Geoff Peters, Van Nistelrooy will hand Jakub Stolarczyk his first start of the season.
Jakub Stolarczyk will make his Premier League debut tonight for Leicester at Liverpool. The goalkeeper also started in the cup for #lcfc at Anfield last season.

It is a big call by the manager, but the Poland under-21 international has previous experience of playing at Anfield, having played in the EFL Cup clash last season.
