Team News

Liverpool
Chelsea
  • Caoimhin Kelleher is expected to start between the sticks with Alisson ruled out until after the November international break.
  • Harvey Elliott is also absent, while Federico Chiesa is a doubt.
  • Enzo Maresca will be forced into two defensive changes with Wesley Fofana and Marc Cucurella suspended. Axel Disasi and Renato Veiga should deputise at centre-back and left-back, respectively.
  • Aside from that, the Chelsea boss has a full squad available for selection here, including club captain Reece James.

Prediction

  • Liverpool return to domestic duties top of the Premier League table, and they'll look to end the gameweek top of the pile, though face a Chelsea side that has won every away league game this season.
  • The Blues were held to a 1-1 home draw with Nottingham Forest prior to the international break. They have lost just one of their last four visits to Anfield, but that was a 4-1 loss in this fixture last season.
  • Draws have been a common result in meetings between these two in the past, and that pattern may follow suit in what should prove an entertaining encounter on Sunday afternoon.

  • 2-1

  • LIVERPOOL Kelleher, Van Dijk, Konate, Szoboszlai, Salah, Jones, Gakpo, Jota, Robertson, Gravenberch, Alexander-Arnold.

  • CHELSEA Sanchez, James, Adarabioyo, Colwill, Gusto, Caicedo, Lavia, Madueke, Palmer, Sancho, Jackson.

  • Overs are Terrible odds ! :(

  • its an upset match for Liverpool, BTTS best bet on this

  • Liverpool played easy opponents, now real tests coming. Scoring draw most likely indeed

  • Both teams are looking different gravy this season, but Liverpool barring a goalkeeping calamity are more poised to take all 3 points. Look for Salah to dissect the Chelsea left side and Mac Allister to provide an assist

  • home win for me

  • Tough game to call but Liverpool Over 1.5 goals is a sure bet … they are potent in attack and Chelsea defense is shaky even when everyone is available now Cucurella and Fofana is missing. Disasi might have a disasterclass.

  • 5 of the last 6 league meetings have ended in draws.

  • over 1.5 first half goals
