Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday's Premier League clash with Leicester City.

Liverpool are set to renew hostilities with Leicester City once again on Tuesday when they travel to the King Power for a Premier League battle.

Jurgen Klopp's side came back from 3-1 down to dump the Foxes out of the EFL Cup on penalties in midweek, with Caoimhin Kelleher the hero of the hour for the Reds.

The second-placed Merseyside outfit were due to take on Leeds United on Boxing Day, but that game will now take place at a later date given the Whites' significant number of absentees.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Leicester.
