Liverpool have a chance to climb to a seven-point lead at the top of the Premier League table as they sit level at one-all against Leicester City at the break.
An early strike from Foxes forward AndrƩ Ayew set Ruud van Nistelrooy's troops up and running in the 6th minute, but Arne Slot's Reds pushed to restore parity at Anfield and were ultimately rewarded thanks to compatriot Cody Gakpo.
The former PSV Eindhoven starlet curled his effort beyond Leicester keeperĀ Jakub Stolarczyk just before the break, giving him ten goals for the season.
On this pace, Gakpo would best not only his Premier League tally from last season (8) but also his overall goalscoring return from 2023-24 (16).
Could he bag a brace before full-time?
