Liverpool's line up for the Watford match up:
Alisson
Fabinho
Virgil Van Dijk
Georginio Wijnaldum
Dejan Lovren
Roberto Firmino
Sadio Mane
Mohamed Salah
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain
Andy Robertson
Trent Alexander-Arnold
Naby Keita and Joe Gomez are both missing due to injury. Joe Gomez is a precautionary measure. Jordan Henderson is also still absent.
I expect an easy win for the Reds. Hopefully Firmino would grab another goal on the road.

I believe Chelsea will win tonight with Bourneouth and will pursue Leicester points that continue to suffer if Chelsea really wins tonight then the difference in points will be a little hopeful that Chelsea to overtake Leicester will be even easier.
I have bet on this match that hopefully on the weekend there will be luck with the right score and I have placed it in the gambling.

Leicester needs Vardy in his full strength.
They went from top 3 contenders to a shitty form that you only see from teams on the relegation zone (Leicester in the last 7 league games: 1W 2D 4L). What you say about Vardy is true, it does looks like without him the team falls apart, but i also think they were overperforming. This is the real Leicester City under Rodgers. That's one of the main reasons why they're in the top 4, that and the fact that the top teams have been pretty shit this season 
Buying a new striker this summer would be Rodger's best option. Danny Ings looks like he's gonna feel right at home at LCFC imho.
And I don't think their overfperforming per se. They did well the past couple summer transfer windows of acquiring the right players and deserve to be within the top 6 I guess...?
Yeah leicester with the 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 5 games and the two losses in a row right now, it is getting a lot worse for Leicester City. However they are still ranked third in the league so I think that is not a big problem considering they are still 6 points ahead and manchester city is not going to europe next season so Leicester aside from the bragging rights will probably go to champions league without any problem at all and that is kind of enough. Of course they liked to finish the league at second place and they were there for a while and all that but it looks like they realized they won't and basically accepting the third position.
Lately, Leicester have had a poor performance by not winning x4 in a row. I don't know why Leicester are like this, even though before they were more violent against the strong or low teams, but this time they started to fade. .
Remember that there is still a lot of competition left in the EPL so Leicester must be able to hold on to it as in the beginning.

Leicester seem to have fallen to pieces, I guess what we saw earlier in the season was a purple patch & this is Leicester’s true form. They need to fix up quickly or their CL spot could soon slip away.
From 4 EPL matches, Leicester have never won at all. Only 2 draws and 2 losses, it's really bad for Leicester. Many losses will indeed result in them losing the zone at UCL. If this poor performance continues, Chelsea and Manchester United are ready to take their positions.

I think it's because Vardy is not performing well and missing out in matches. Vardy had outstanding some matches back in few weeks ago and Leicester were winning their matches. Since Vardy dropped against West Ham match on 28th December 2019 for some personal reason, he lost his way and with him slowly Leicester also lost their way. They started losing matches against Southampton (home match), Burnley (away match), draw against Chelsea (home match), draw with Wolves (away match), losing against City (home match), and yesterday losing against Norwich.
Leicester needs Vardy in his full strength.

last night Norwich was able to win 1-0 over Leicester, many consider this match to be won by Liecester easily
Usually when we're on the closing stages of any season [last 10 games or so], we tend to witness a lot of unpredictable results from the bottom half teams [especially for those in relegation zones] and that game was one of them...Jamie Vardy doesn't play. I don't know why his reasons even on the bench don't exist
He had a calf injury.Vardy is not a key player for Leicester anymore.
He had a good season when Leicester won the premier league but from that point and then he haven't reached the same levels of performance. We should not rely on him form Leicester's matches.
Although I agree with you for the most part [him being better on their winning season], his contribution [this season] in terms of goals isn't that bad [17 goals while sharing the top spot with Auba]. He had a good season when Leicester won the premier league but from that point and then he haven't reached the same levels of performance. We should not rely on him form Leicester's matches.

Quite true and don't forget that without players like kante holding the midfield defensively and Mahrez complementing the attack, Vardy won't have had a brilliant season. In fact that season, the whole squad were superb and it reflected in their winning the tournament. Currently players like Ndidi is even more vital since conceding less goals is much important these days. Ones the defense is in shape, the attacking strength of the team comes out fully. Take Liverpool as a case study.
Leicester losing to Norwich was definitely a surprise but as a Chelsea fan it was a delight since it offers us an opportunity to close the gap. Leicester currently are 6 point above us in 3rd position and a win against Bournemouth tiday will close that gap to 3 points.
He ain't playing tonight, i'm not exactly sure why but it's probably an injury. Good thing the Majestic7 promotion didn't have this game on the list 'cause i would've gone with Vardy as goalscorer.
Played him in my Premier League fantasy team and i think i am out of patience. I am going to transfer him out. Without Madison's spark which he showed at tge first half of the season Vardy does play when even when on the pitch so Leicester City are on a down trendVardy is not a key player for Leicester anymore.

Not tomorrow but in this evening. I am going for 2 - 1, Leicester to win. Vardy might find a goal since he has not scored in the recent times. Imagine a player has 17 goals from 25 apprentice but last goal was on December 12th against City and before that he has at least one goal in every match.
Vardy has not scored in last 7 constitutive PL matches and all together (including all leagues) it's 9 matches excluding the 4 matches he did not play.
In every match there must be a surprise let alone play in the EPL last night Norwich was able to win 1-0 over Leicester, many consider this match to be won by Liecester easily even though it was best that Norwich led the match until the end of the match.
Jamie Vardy doesn't play. I don't know why his reasons even on the bench don't exist even though he can rely on it like this to return the goal to the opponent because he always has the luck to score, but the unfortunate fate of Leicester still has to bow to Norwich.

I would do the same if Leicester was a choice. It seems he has a calf injury. The first half was boring but in the 2nd half Leicester is playing better but could not able to score yet. There was one by VAR saved Norwich I guess.
If Leicester will continue like that, its third place will be questionable

No interesting games tomorrow (meaning no PL games on my Saturday bet slip), the only match worth watching is probably the Watford vs Liverpool, just to see how long Watford can hold until Liverpool scores a goal and goes on to win the game.
There's the Bournemouth vs Chelsea, maybe The Cherries desperate for a win could make for an exciting game to watch?

I think 1 goal in this game is the best thing that could happens, Leicester has slightly better chances but Norwich could surprises us too. Not very promising game imo
