Two teams at opposite ends of the table will meet as Liverpool look to extend their lead atop the Premier League following a massive victory over Tottenham. They'll face a Leicester City side that needs to bounce back after losing to relegation threatened Wolverhampton Wanderers but Anfield isn't a kind venue for teams looking for a boost. No matter what has come in their path so far, Arne Slot's Reds have found a way through and are managing the festive period by getting healthier with each day. Things are easier with Mohamed Salah at the helm of the attack but it doesn't matter what's happening, they're pushing the right buttons. Here are our storylines, how you can watch the match and more: How to watch and odds Date : Thursday, Dec. 26 | Time : 3 p.m. ET Location : Anfield -- Liverpool, England TV: USA | Live stream: Fubo ( Try for free ) Odds: Liverpool -1400; Draw +1000; Leicester +2500 Storylines Liverpool: Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konate both won't be back into contention until 2025 but that hasn't hurt the Reds so far as they've managed their absentees well. Now unbeaten in 21 consecutive matches in all competitions, the question is what can stop Liverpool's roll. The odds certainly suggest that it won't be Leicester to do it as the Foxes have struggled defensively but when teams are playing multiple games per week, they have to be on the lookout for banana peels. Liverpool predicted XI: Alisson, Andrew Robertson, Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alexis Mac Allister, Ryan Gravenberch, Curtis Jones, Cody Gakpo, Diogo Jota, Mohamed Salah Leicester City: After Danny Ward's performance in their last match, the Foxes will hope that Mads Hermansen can make the match but he'll be a late fitness test for Boxing Day festivities. Wilfred Ndidi and Ricardo Pereira will still be out while Issahku Fatawu is a long-term absentee with an ACL injury that will sideline him for the entire season. Leicester City predicted XI: Danny Ward, Victor Kristiansen, Wout Faes, Conor Coady, James Justin, Harry Winks, Oliver Skipp, Stephy Mavididi, Facundo Buonanotte, Jordan Ayew, Jamie Vardy Prediction Despite changes from the Foxes, they'll still end up conceding far too many chances to Liverpool in a heavy defeat. Pick: Liverpool 3, Leicester City 0The increase in accusations has sparked a heated debate among football fans, pundits, and officials alike. Some have pointed to the sheer volume of allegations as evidence of systematic wrongdoing at Manchester City, while others have expressed skepticism about the motives behind the investigation and the credibility of the evidence being presented.

By CLAIRE RUSH President-elect Donald Trump has once again suggested he wants to revert the name of North America’s tallest mountain — Alaska’s Denali — to Mount McKinley, wading into a sensitive and decades-old conflict about what the peak should be called.

For the agents removing immigrants, it’s a painstaking process Former President Barack Obama changed the official name to Denali in 2015 to reflect the traditions of Alaska Natives as well as the preference of many Alaska residents. The federal government in recent years has endeavored to change place-names considered disrespectful to Native people. “Denali” is an Athabascan word meaning “the high one” or “the great one.” A prospector in 1896 dubbed the peak “Mount McKinley” after President William McKinley, who had never been to Alaska. That name was formally recognized by the U.S. government until Obama changed it over opposition from lawmakers in McKinley’s home state of Ohio. Trump suggested in 2016 that he might undo Obama’s action, but he dropped that notion after Alaska’s senators objected. He raised it again during a rally in Phoenix on Sunday. “McKinley was a very good, maybe a great president,” Trump said Sunday. “They took his name off Mount McKinley, right? That’s what they do to people.” Once again, Trump’s suggestion drew quick opposition within Alaska. “Uh. Nope. It’s Denali,” Democratic state Sen. Scott Kawasaki posted on the social platform X Sunday night. Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski , who for years pushed for legislation to change the name to Denali, conveyed a similar sentiment in a post of her own. “There is only one name worthy of North America’s tallest mountain: Denali — the Great One,” Murkowski wrote on X. Various tribes of Athabascan people have lived in the shadow of the 20,310-foot (6,190-meter) mountain for thousands of years. McKinley, a Republican native of Ohio who served as the 25th president, was assassinated early in his second term in 1901 in Buffalo, New York. Alaska and Ohio have been at odds over the name since at least the 1970s. Alaska had a standing request to change the name since 1975, when the legislature passed a resolution and then-Gov. Jay Hammond appealed to the federal government. Known for its majestic views, the mountain is dotted with glaciers and covered at the top with snow year-round, with powerful winds that make it difficult for the adventurous few who seek to climb it.
