Luis Diaz dropped in two big changes for Liverpool vs Leicester
Liverpool attacker Luis Diaz has been dropped from the starting line-up for today's Premier League clash against Leicester City.
The Reds registered a stunning 6-3 win over Tottenham Hotspur on the road last weekend. Diaz was exceptional with a brace.
Despite this, he has been dropped to the bench as part of Arne Slot's rotation.
Dominik Szoboszlai was also fantastic against Spurs on Sunday, but he has likewise dropped to the bench for the Anfield giants.
Darwin Nunez had got the nod to lead the line ahead of Diaz up front while Curtis Jones comes into midfield instead of Szoboszlai.
Regardless of those changes, the Reds should be overwhelming favourites to beat the Foxes, who are lying 18th in the standings.
Liverpool are four points ahead of second-placed Chelsea with two games in hand. They have a brilliant chance to extend the lead.
The Merseyside outfit look in pole position to win the title, but they can't take things for granted and need to stay focused in their bid.
