Brendan Rodgers is poised to potentially do a massive solid for one of his former employers. He leads his Leicester City side into Manchester on Monday night with the potential to massively impact the Premier League title race. Battling the Citizens to a draw would be a big help to his former club Liverpool.
Beating City would be massive for Anfield, as it could effectively hand them the title; provided they take care of business on their own end. Oh, and Leicester still has an outside chance of qualifying for the Europa League, so they will not be short of motivation in their own right.
