What They're Saying
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (via Liverpool Echo): "I'm very pleased with Adam [Lallana]. He is a wonderfully gifted player and it was a big move for him to come from Southampton, where he was captain. It's difficult to come to a club this size for all the new players, as you don't know about the expectancy until you come here. They are now starting adapting to that, to what we are doing here and where we want to go."
Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson (via the Express): "Kasper [Schmeichel] is at home at the moment and resting. That will not be something we will look into any further for a couple of weeks. The next time he will have consultation, we will have a better idea of what the length of time he will be out. That will be two or three weeks yet."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Lallana has come on as of late. In 13 league appearances, the 26-year-old has four goals and an average of 1.3 key passes.
Liverpool's Projected Lineup (3-4-1-2): Mignolet; Sakho, Toure, Can; Moreno, Leiva, Henderson, Manquillo; Coutinho, Lallana; Balotelli
Leicester City's Projected Lineup (4-1-4-1): Hamer; Laet, Wasilewski, Morgan, Simpson; Cambiasso; Schlupp, Drinkwater, James, Mahrez; Nugent
