These Liverpool fans are thrilled as Michael Oliver will be officiating their boxing day clash against Leicester City.
Liverpool has won 100% of the three matches Oliver has officiated this season, however, Leicester City has also won all of their matches with the referee, although they have had just one match. This is a first versus second clash at the top of the Premier League; so hopefully, it proves to be as exciting as it sounds.
Here’s what the Liverpool fans had to say about Michael Oliver officiating the match:

What Do We Think?
It does seem strange that Liverpool hasn’t dropped a single point when Michael Oliver has been in charge, of course, this could all just be a big coincidence and Leicester City could grab all three points in a huge game at the top of the table; but you never know, we are sure fans will be keeping a very close eye on the referee come Boxing Day.
