Follow live coverage as Leeds United face Liverpool in the Premier League today.

Javi Gracia and his side sit 16th in the table with eight matches left to play, having been beaten heavily by Crystal Palace on home soil last time out. They are just two places and two points above the relegation zone, with at least seven teams still in the mix and battling to avoid the bottom three.

As for Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp’s team showed an improvement in the second half to draw at home to Arsenal last weekend, but they are four without a win in the top flight and sit eighth place - where they will remain even with a win tonight.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Leeds United vs Liverpool

Leeds pulled off a shock win against Liverpool in their meeting earlier in the campaign at Anfield, and Javi Gracia would dearly love a repeat performance. The Whites are two points clear of the relegation zone, but a win today would lift them five points away from Nottingham Forest in 18th place. The only issue is that Leeds were crushed 5-1 last week by Crystal Palace, putting forward a poor second-half display. They can ill afford another bad outing against the Reds on home soil.
