Liverpool are highly favoured to pile the pressure on Leicester City with a Monday Night Football win at the King Power Stadium, according to the Sky Sports Premier Predictor.
Claudio Ranieri's defending champions have lost their last five in the top flight without scoring a goal and have found little solace in cup competitions in the past week, with an FA Cup fifth-round exit at League One Millwall followed by a 2-1 defeat at Sevilla in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.
Liverpool, meanwhile, have enjoyed a mid-season break due to their earlier exits from the FA Cup and EFL Cup, and return to action two weeks after their last outing, an impressive 2-0 win over Tottenham.
Jurgen Klopp's side are expected to come back with a victory over Leicester - they're given a 56 per cent chance of success on Monday night by the Predictor, which which uses an algorithm to rank results, previous performances and the difficulty of upcoming fixtures. The Foxes, meanwhile, have just a 21 per cent likelihood of winning, with a draw at 23 per cent.
The Sky Sports Premier Predictor - what does it do and how does it work?
Elsewhere, the Sky Sports Premier Predictor is tipping wins for Chelsea, Everton, Tottenham, West Brom - and a potentially crucial victory for relegation-threatened Crystal Palace over Middlesbrough.
