Super Eagles midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi will be aiming to pull the strings in the heart of Leicester City midfield in a bid to stop the mesmerizing skills of Liverpool’s Mohammed Salah in Saturday’s Premier League tie at Anfield.
The Nigerian international has made seven appearances for Leicester this season, helping them to keep three clean sheets.
He scored his second goal of the season in the 5-0 demolition of the Magpies, at the King Power Stadium last Sunday and will be hoping to consolidate on his goalscoring exploit against Liverpool.
Statistically, this will be the 113th meeting between the two sides with Liverpool winning 48 of those. Leicester have 39 wins to their name – but just one in their last five against the Reds
The Foxes are third in the Premier League table after seven matches, only behind Liverpool and Manchester City with four games, drawn two and lost one in their opening seven games.
