LIVERPOOL head coach Arne Slot believes their set-pieces have gone "back to normal" after recent successes.

The number of goals conceded compared to those scored has been an issue for Slot all season, to the extent Aaron Briggs - the individual development coach who was pushed into the role at the start of the campaign - was sacked in late December due to the continued underperformance.
Since then things have improved markedly but Slot said that was not a reflection on Briggs.
In the first 26 matches of the season Liverpool conceded from 13 set-pieces and scored from eight but in their last 12 games since Briggs' departure they have conceded from two and scored from eight.
