Brendan Rodgers has criticised Leicester City’s ‘ridiculous’ two-day turnaround and claimed he cannot make many changes to his severely depleted squad against Liverpool.
Eight first-team regulars are missing through injury, with Jamie Vardy and Wilfried Ndidi only named on the bench to make up the numbers at Manchester City.
Rodgers watched Leicester threaten an improbable comeback during the 6-3 defeat at City on Boxing Day but fears the same team are not physically able to produce again. There will be 51 hours between the final whistle at the Etihad Stadium and kick off at the King Power Stadium.
