📋 Team News: Chelsea
Aarón Anselmino (unknown injury), Marc Guiu (Hamstring injury), Omari Kellyman (surgery), David Datro Fofana (Knee injury) and Wesley Fofana (surgery) are not available for Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca.
We think that The Blues should go for a 4-2-3-1 formation featuring Filip Joergensen, Moises Caicedo, Trevoh Chalobah, Levi Colwill, Marc Cucurella, Romeo Lavia, Enzo Fernandez, Pedro Neto, Cole Palmer, Noni Madueke and Nicolas Jackson.
📋 Team News: Liverpool
Out of a mainly full-strength group of players, there is just the sole fitness issue for the Liverpool manager Arne Slot to be concerned about. Tyler Morton (Shoulder injury) misses out for this game.
It’s our belief that The Reds will likely make use of a 4-3-3 formation with a starting lineup of Alisson Becker, T. Alexander-Arnold, Jarell Quansah, Virgil van Dijk, K. Tsimikas, Harvey Elliott, Ryan Gravenberch, Curtis Jones, Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz.
⚡ Prediction
We’re inclined to think that Liverpool are likely to find the back of the net against this Chelsea team, although it probably shouldn’t be enough to avoid a loss.
Our selection here is for a very close game with a 2-1 win for Chelsea after 90 minutes. Let’s just see how this one goes.
