You'll Never Walk Alone rings out as we get ready for kickoff. 

Liverpool keep the pressure on, with referee Bond letting a couple of 50-50 challenges go. Eventually Leicester clear. 

GAKPO DENIED! Gravenberch lifts a ball into the area to find the run of Salah, who brings it down and then squares through the area looking for Nunez. Nunez can't quite get to it, but it then breaks for Gakpo and he thumps home through traffic. Salah is flagged for offside, which VAR then checks. Salah is onside, but Nunez was then offside - determined after a LONG VAR check. 

The win takes Liverpool seven points clear of second placed Chelsea, while still having a game in hand, to be played in February against Merseyside rivals Everton. They're into a hugely congested run of fixtures over the next month and a half, but are well placed to challenge for multiple trophies, and the buffer in the league will only help as they manage their squad through the fixtures. For Leicester, they finish the week in the bottom three, and will be desperate to start picking up some points after conceding 10 goals in their last 3 games. 

Liverpool get the result they were after to extend their lead at the top, although it wasn't always plain sailing after Leicester's early goal against the run of play. It took until first half stoppage time for them to pull back that opener, but Cody Gakpo did bring them level, and in the second half it was one way traffic. Leicester didn't fire a shot in the second half, and it didn't take long for Curtis Jones to put the Reds in front, before Mo Salah iced things late on. Liverpool could easily have had plenty more, hitting the woodwork twice through Salah and Andy Robertson, having a second Cody Gakpo goal chalked off, and creating plenty of other chances as they laid siege to the Leicester end.

SAVE! Liverpool dominating all the possession early on, and they spring forward again as Gakpo is picked out on the left by an Alexander-Arnold switch. Gakpo's cross finds Salah arriving at the back post, but he's denied by Stolarczyk from a tight angle. The ball falls for Jones on the rebound, but he can't dig it out for a shot and has it poked away by Stolarczyk on the ground! Good early moment for the debutant keeper! 

Leicester nick possession after the throw and look to spring Daka with a long ball. It's easily dealt with by van Dijk. 

Liverpool almost at a walk now in possession. Leicester are showing very little intent to press and try win possession, almost happy with the 3-1 scoreline. 

TOP KEEPING! It's again Gakpo on the left who is the conductor, and his 1-2 with Mac Allister sends him into the box. It's laid off for Robertson for a cross, who looked for all money like he'd delivered on a plate for Nunez. Skolarczyk though dives to claw it away, preventing a tap in! 

Play resumes, with Daka looking set to continue. Liverpool resume their attack, but Jones finds himself crowded on the edge of the box and can't squeeze his pass through. 

Salah whips a cross in from the right, which Mac Allister flicks on looking for Nunez. Punched away by the keeper, just as Nunez was lurking. 

Mavididi is away again down the left, as Leicester start to show a little more adventure in chasing this game. Gomez gets across to poke it for a throw. 

Welcome to Tribe for live coverage of the English Premier League clash between Liverpool and Leicester City. I'm Ryan Nixon (@NewYorkNixon) and I'll have all the action as it happens.

Off we go, with both teams in their usual strips; Liverpool in red, Leicester in blue. Liverpool are quickly on top, with an early attack down the left. Robertson overlaps to collect Mac Allister's pass, but the cross is headed clear. They come again, this time down the right, and win an early attacking throw. 

The eventual delivery from the corner sees Gomez get his head on it, but Vestergaard then helps clear and Leicester can break. Daka feels contact from Gomez and goes down, resulting in a booking. Soft free kick. 

Leicester are trying to commit men forward at the moment, which they really have no option but to do.  However, the game is getting stretched, and that's inviting for Liverpool. 

Gakpo gives the ball away high up the pitch, and then can't win it back as Ayew stays strong. Szoboszlai breaks things up instead with a cynical foul, earning a booking which will bring him a one game ban.

A cameo at the back for Okoli, replacing Coady. 

Liverpool mount yet another attack, with Gakpo this time trying to slide a ball through the box to find Nunez. It's cut out and cleared. 

For Leicester, they'll be starting to get desperate at the bottom of the table, having now dropped into the relegation zone. They're coming off two heavy defeats at the hands of Wolves and Newcastle, and will have to be much tighter defensively if they're to stop Liverpool's rampant attack this evening. 

Leicester try play out from the back, but a pass back to Stolarczyk results in a corner as he lets ends up letting it run over the byline! The corner is punched clear, but Alexander-Arnold then earns another corner as his shot is deflected wide.

A rare spell of possession for the visitors, allowing themselves to get higher up the pitch. Coady looks for Mavididi with a diagonal ball, but overcooks it and sends it over the sideline. 

The corner again comes to nothing, with a goal kick the result. Leicester are taking plenty of time over their set pieces, which is bringing some jeers from the fans. 

Yet another Robertson cross as Liverpool pour forward again, but it's headed away. Gravenberch is beaten to it by Ayew, and then concedes a free kick to release the pressure. 

Liverpool resume in possession, again probing patiently starting with their central defenders. 

Another promising attack, as Leicester find themselves pegged deep in front of the kop. Alexander-Arnold curls in a teasing cross from the right, but Justin heads it behind for a corner. 

Liverpool are in complete control of the Premier League this season, and this morning's results have only helped matters as Chelsea fell at home to Fulham. A win today for the league leaders would send them seven points clear at the top, with a game in hand, and heading into 2025 well in control of their title ambitions. While the demise of some of the other supposed title contenders has played into their position, few can argue with the work that Arne Slot has done in his first season in charge, and he'll have his team chomping at the bit today to go out and extend their lead. 

Leicester have shown very little intent in this second half, and they again stand off as Liverpool knock the ball about. In the end van Dijk pings one forward, but it's too long and goes for a goal kick. 

Liverpool have had 70% of possession so far, but they're struggling to create any real chances at present. They again head forward, but Mavididi is back doing his defensive duties, and nicks it off Salah. 

Finally Liverpool get forward, with Jones looking to play Alexander-Arnold into the area. Buonanotte does a good job of closing him down though, forcing a goal kick. 

So all level at the break, but it's been a fascinating half that can't be told simply through a scoreline. Liverpool have absolutely dominated in terms of possession and field position, but with Leicester pinching an early goal on the break, it enabled the visitors to sit deep and frustrate the home side. Liverpool have largely been forced into playing into the wide areas and delivering crosses, and while they could have had 3 or 4 with a bit more luck on their side, they eventually drew level in stoppage time through Cody Gakpo's fantastic strike. Whether that changes things in the second half, particularly for Leicester's tactics, will be intriguing to see. 

SHOT! Having seemingly had enough of just curling in cross after cross, Alexander-Arnold spots some space for a ping from outside the area. It's sliced badly into the kop .

Another corner. Liverpool once again ask questions in the wide areas, with Salah teeing up Alexander-Arnold for a cross. Robertson volleys it back across goal, but Justin puts it behind. 

The teams are on the park, with a foggy Anfield greeting them. 

Liverpool set up with a cluster of men beyond the far post, before making their runs to try reach a flat near post ball from Alexander-Arnold. Diverted behind for another corner, which Daka deals with. 

This is just a procession of attacking chances for the home side, as they yet again come forward through the heavy fog. Coady does well to deal with not one, but two opportunities down the left. 

Gakpo picks up possession wide on the left, and cuts his way back infield. He's clipped by Ayew as he does so, who goes into the book as a result. Again, not too much in it. 

OFF THE POST! The corner is dealt with, but Liverpool reload and Alexander-Arnold whips a cross in from the left. Robertson gets his head on it and flicks it on, with the ball beating the keeper but not the right post. It comes back and hits the keeper on the deck, but rebounds for a corner. 

Liverpool try and attack again, but it's broken up and Leicester then try counter. Nothing doing though, as they win a free kick near halfway. 

If Leicester needed some hope, it's the nine minutes added on, largely as a result of the VAR reviews. 

Wave after wave of Liverpool attacks continue, but Mac Allister can't pick out a team mate with his clip into the area. Headed into the air, but Nunez can't then bring it down and Leicester clear again. 

Robertson overhits the free kick and it goes for a goal kick. 

Liverpool win a free kick in a dangerous spot, as Gakpo is dragged back by an arm by Daka. Dangerous spot just outside the area.
