As it stands, Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel hold the advantage as their teams occupy a place in the top four heading into the final matches of the season.
The Foxes sit outside on goal difference following Liverpool’s 3-0 success against Burnley.
It is the first time throughout the 2020/21 campaign that Leicester have been outside of the top four and they must now beat Tottenham Hotspur on the last day and hope either Chelsea or the Reds falter.
Despite that precarious position, Rodgers has suggested that there could be one final twist between now and the full-time whistle on Sunday afternoon.
Talking in his pre-match press conference, the Northern Irishman said: "I don't think it's over yet, I have that optimism and belief that if we do our job we can do no more than that. It'll be interesting to see how it finishes.

There are plenty of permutations ahead of the weekend but Leicester will likely need a win if they are to book a place in the Champions League.
Liverpool possess a superior goal difference, whilst Chelsea also sit one point clear ahead of their respective meetings with Crystal Palace and Aston Villa.
The Reds will hope to at least finish in the top four after an exhilarating run of form that has seen them win their last four Premier League games, with Alisson remarkably scoring a late winner against West Bromwich Albion.
Liverpool boss Klopp has already pointed to how much of a boost a place in the top four would be for his side.

The German said: "It would be great if we could do it [Champions League] - it is really exciting as well.
"The boys will be tired after the season - but for now, it is all good."
An intriguing situation could occur on Sunday where each of Leicester, Chelsea and Liverpool could end on the same points of 67.
That would only occur if Chelsea lose, with both Leicester and Liverpool drawing. The top four then would be decided on goal difference.
