Leeds secured an impressive victory over Chelsea in midweek
Liverpool dropped more points in their 1-1 draw with Sunderland
Recommended bet: Liverpool to win and both teams to score
Leeds bounced back to winning ways in midweek with a stunning 3-1 victory over Chelsea at Elland Road.
Goals from Jaka Bilol, Ao Tanaka and Dominic Calvert-Lewin were enough to end their four-game winless run in the Premier League.
On the same evening, Liverpool dropped more points, this time to Sunderland, as the visitors escaped Anfield with a point.
A trip to a resurgent Leeds is the last thing Arne Slot needs.

Team news
Daniel Farke could be missing two key players for the clash against Liverpool. Lukas Nmecha and Calvert-Lewin are major doubts for the game. The former has a hamstring issue, while the English forward is struggling with a calf problem.
They could join Daniel James and Sean Longstaff on the treatment table, with the latter likely to miss the next few weeks also.
Slot will be without the services of Giovanni Leoni and Jermaine Frimpong at Elland Road due to injuries.
Elsewhere, Conor Bradley could return to the starting XI having missed the previous four matches for the Anfield side.
The stats
Since Leeds suffered relegation to the second tier in 2004 the clubs have faced each other only eight times.
The Reds have won six of those eight matches, with Leeds last winning in October 2022.
Liverpool sit ninth after a dismal run of form which has seen them win just two Premier League games since the middle of September.
Leeds moved out of the relegation zone thanks to their win over Chelsea, but they have suffered defeat on eight occasions this season.
Five of the previous eight matches between the sides have seen both teams scoring.
For Liverpool, both teams have scored in 13 of their 22 matches so far this season.
10 of Leeds’ 15 matches have featured both teams scoring across all competitions this term.

Prediction
Leeds will be buoyed by that victory in midweek against a Chelsea side challenging for the Premier League title.
This should give them a spring in their step when they welcome Liverpool to Elland Road on Saturday evening and could perhaps make the difference.
The Reds, however, will be looking to swiftly move on from the draw against Sunderland and this could see Slot making a few changes to his starting XI.
While their form hasn’t been great in recent months, a victory here could help turn the tide and give them a boost before traveling to Italy for a clash against Inter Milan next week.
