Liverpool take on Leeds United in this New Year’s Day clash in the Premier League at Anfield.
Arne Slot’s side defeated bottom-of-the-table Wolves on Saturday for their third consecutive Premier League win, with Florian Wirtz scoring his first goal for the Reds.
Leeds earned a good point away at high-flying Sunderland, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin continuing his impressive scoring streak. The striker has now scored seven goals in his last six Premier League appearances.
The last time these two met was only at the start of December, when Leeds scored a stoppage-time equaliser to draw 3-3 against Liverpool, who spurned a 2-0 and 3-2 lead.
