Storylines

Liverpool: With Alisson ruled out of the match, Slot will have some defensive worries, but with Liverpool only allowing two goals during the young season, it’s about more than just the keeper in this strong team defense. They’ll be facing one of the top scoring teams in the league in Chelsea but having Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz, Liverpool will have plenty to challenge Chelsea in the clash.

Liverpool predicted XI: Caoimhin Kelleher, Andrew Robertson, Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ryan Gravenberch, Wataru Endo, Luis Diaz, Dominik Szoboszlai, Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota

Chelsea: Under Enzo Maresca, this is becoming more than just the Cole Palmer show. Noni Madueke and Jadon Sancho are bringing life to the wings for the Blues while Nicolas Jackson is finding his finishing boots leading the line. A side that can score on anyone in the world, where Chelsea needs to improve is with their team defense. It will be quite a task to go into Anfield and collect a point but if the Blues are able to do that, it’ll announce them as true title contenders. 

Chelsea predicted XI: Robert Sanchez, Renato Veiga, Levi Cowill, Tosin Adarabioyo, Malo Gusto, Enzo Fernandez, Romeo Lavia, Moises Caicedo, Jadon Sancho, Nicolas Jackson, Cole Palmer

Prediction

In front of their home faithful, Liverpool will find the cracks in Chelsea’s defense to collect a fourth consecutive victory. Pick: Liverpool 2, Chelsea 1
