Liverpool v Leicester Boxing Day Special

Liverpool will look to maintain their four-point lead at the top of the Premier League when they welcome Leicester City to Anfield on Boxing Day. The Reds enter this fixture buoyed by an incredible 6-3 triumph over Tottenham, showcasing their attacking prowess in front of goal. Leicester, meanwhile, have fallen back into the relegation scrap following consecutive heavy defeats and a worrying defensive record on their travels.

The Foxes, under new boss Ruud van Nistelrooy, initially enjoyed a positive boost but were brought crashing down with a 3-0 defeat at home to Wolves last weekend. Their away struggles are even more pronounced: they have conceded at least four goals in four of their last seven away matches, and they ship an average of 2.75 goals per game on the road.

1. Liverpool Over 3.5 Team Goals @2.10

Liverpool are massive favourites, so taking them outright at 1/11 isn’t appealing. Instead, the Reds to score at least four goals offers far better value. Considering Leicester’s defensive fragility, 2.10 odds are a fair reflection of the probability of a high-scoring performance at Anfield.

2. Correct Score: Liverpool 5-0 @17.00

Leicester have failed to register a goal in two of their last three away fixtures. Meanwhile, Liverpool’s defence has tightened up, conceding just five goals in eight home games. If the Reds unleash their attacking firepower, this bet could yield a significant payout for those seeking a bigger risk-reward scenario.

3. Virgil van Dijk Anytime Goalscorer @6.50

At a much bigger price than the usual suspects like Mohamed Salah, Van Dijk provides interesting value from set pieces. Leicester concede 6.6 corners per game and have allowed 112 corners in just 17 Premier League matches. From a probability standpoint, these numbers significantly increase Van Dijk’s likelihood of finding the net, making 6.50 feel generous.

Ultimately, this is a game in which Liverpool could dominate from start to finish. With the Reds having scored at least twice in each of their last 10 home matches, expect them to run riot and further expose Leicester’s leaky defence.
