Liverpool will take on Leeds United in the Premier League tonight as the eyes of the world will see if the Reds can close the gap on leaders Manchester City.
Jurgen Klopp's side are on a fantastic run of form currently, which is coming at just the right time in the season as they prepare for the arrival of Marcelo Bielsa's side. This is Liverpool's game in hand that was supposed to take place on Boxing Day which means they can cut the deficit to the Citizens if they secure victory here.

Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota will both be missing for Leeds' arrival at Anfield, which means that Luis Diaz will be looking to capitalise on grabbing his first goal that he scored against Norwich City last time out.
The only missing players are in attack for the Reds which means that Klopp will have a variety of players to choose from.

Liverpool are on a strong run right now, and the opponents are not. It's safe to say that we can only see this match one way currently but this will all depend on how clinical the attacking players are for the Reds.
Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Leeds United
