"Liverpool lacked the firepower to break down a much-changed Leeds in a 0-0 draw at Anfield that wasted a chance to solidify their place in the Premier League top four. Arne Slot's men are now nine games unbeaten, but were made to pay for the latest in a series of lacklustre performances in that run as Leeds comfortably held out to pull seven points clear of the relegation zone."
"Liverpool were without Mohamed Salah due to his participation in the Africa Cup of Nations and the injured Alexander Isak. The absence of the two top scorers in the Premier League last season was felt as the Reds rarely threatened to break the deadlock. Hugo Ekitike wasted their best chance when he completely miscued his header from Jeremie Frimpong's driven cross with the goal gaping midway through the first half."
Leeds held Liverpool to a 0-0 draw at Anfield as Liverpool struggled without top scorers Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak. Defensive organisation from Leeds, managed with changes including resting Dominic Calvert-Lewin, frustrated Liverpool’s attacking play. Hugo Ekitike missed a gilt-edged chance when he miscued a header from Jeremie Frimpong's cross with the goal gaping. Calvert-Lewin was later flagged offside after poking the ball past Alisson, denying him his first Anfield goal and extending his scoring run to six games. The point leaves Liverpool vying for a top-four spot while Leeds move further clear of relegation.
