Can Liverpool record a seventh straight win on Wednesday against Leicester City in the English League Cup?

After failing to make it into the Champions League places in the English Premier League last season Liverpool needed a positive response and that is what the team has produced so far. Jürgen Klopp's men started the 2023/24 season with a draw against Chelsea - a tie they arguably should have lost - but since then have won all their games. In the League Cup, however, the Reds have often struggled in recent games. They failed to win their last three games in this competition, so Klopp will not take this game lightly.

Speaking of a poor 2022-23 season, Leicester City should not be forgotten. The Foxes got relegated after nine seasons in the English top flight. Like Liverpool, Enzo Maresca's side have rebounded this season and currently sit at the top of the Championship table.

Liverpool vs Leicester City Betting Tips: Liverpool to win

Liverpool may not have won their last three games in this competition but don't write them off at Anfield. In addition, the 'Reds'' are the in-form team, having not only won each of their last six games but also scored three goals in five of them.

They kept a clean sheet only once in that period but that is no reason to believe Leicester will win this game. Leicester lost each of their last three competitive meetings with Jürgen Klopp's side.
