Hello and welcome to Eurosport's coverage of the EFL Cup match between Liverpool and Leicester City. I'm Ciaran Baynes and I'll be following the match with you.

Gomez miss-controls 30 yards from goal and Vardy races through and beats Kelleher with a low shot but sees it come back off the post.

Firmino picks him out from the right flank but the Japanese star shoots high over the bar.

What a strike. Maddison given freedom to steady himself in the Liverpool half and he crashes an effort home from 25 yards into the roof of the net.

Kelleher saved it anyway but Vardy raced towards goal from 40 yards out and when Liverpool throught he was going to pass left to Daka just darted towards goal and outmuscled Morton, which was given a foul, before Kelleher saved his shot.

KEY CLEARANCE

Minamino looked like he was in on goal but taken off him by Ndidi.

Vardy played in Maddison and he looked for Daka at the far post but Gomez got a crucial touch and Kelleher gleefully collected the ball.

Maybe it is because fans feel lucky to still be able to go, or there are more hardcore in attendance but Anfield is absolutely rocking.

And a great one. Tsimikas with sillky skills on the left flank, then Willians heads back his cross into the centre, which Firmino tees up for Oxlade-Chamberlain who drills it home.

Any long ball over the top has Liverpool hurrying. This time Kelleher heads away on the edge of his box.

Another for Vardy from a perfect square ball from Daka. These two could be a hell of a partnership. Daka was played down the left hand channel by Dewsbury-Hall and he put it on a plate for Vardy to sidefoot home.

Maddison puts a low free kick into the box from the right flank and if Vardy had controlled the ball he would have been through on goal.

A typical Foxes goal. Maddison slides a ball down the inside right channel for Vardy and he shoots across the keeper first time from inside the penalty area. Kelleher gets a hand to it but cannot stop it going into the far corner.

Daka is rapid, he leaves Koumetio for dust and shoots with his left foot, possibly going wide of the target but the Liverpool keeper takes no chances.

A cross-shot more than an effort to trouble the Leicester keeper and it is easily cleared.

A nice welcome for Brendan Rodgers as you'd expect...

With Jota seemingly having secured a place alongside Salah and Mane in Liverpool's forward line, this is a chance for Firmino to show his wares. Alongside him are seven who played at Preston last time out: Gomez, Tsimikas, Morton, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Minamino, Williams and Bradley.

Only four Leicester players start who were in the first xi in the last round: Soyuncu, Thomas, Dewsbury-Hall and Daka.

HOW THEY GOT HERE

In the last round back in October, Leicester needed penalties to beat Brighton, while Liverpool won 2-0 at Preston.

LIVERPOOL:
3nd round: Norwich (a) 3-0
4th round: Preston (a) 2-0

LEICESTER:
3rd round: Millwall (a) 2-0
4th round: Brighton (h) 2-2 (4-2 on pens)

Unsurprisingly with this reserve Liverpool side playing and a full strength Foxes outfit the bookies are adjusting their odds. Leicester are now generally less than 2/1 to win, while Liverpool's price is pushing up and currently around 6/4.

And this is the side former Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is sending out at Anfield.
