Stu Forster/Getty Images Liverpool legend Ray Houghton has warned the Reds to be on their guard for set pieces, a key Leeds United strength, and identified Dominic Calvert-Lewin as someone who could be effective on the end of them. Leeds have looked to be strong from set pieces this season, something Daniel Farke appreciates.

Set plays have been a problem area for Liverpool this season, Houghton added, and is something they need to improve on. Asked if Calvert-Lewin can be a handful for Liverpool, Houghton said on LFC TV (33:33): “And from set plays, that is one of the problems we have had this season.

“We have to be on our guard against that.” Houghton also admits that Leeds will want to make use of the Elland Road factor. Liverpool have the poorest record at set-pieces from an attacking sense in the Premier League, while also conceding nine times from set plays themselves.
