Liverpool vs Chelsea: match preview
Under new head coach Arne Slot, Liverpool lead the way in the Premier League after seven games, having conceded just twice. One point ahead of champions Manchester City and Arsenal, the Reds have won all but one of their games in the league this season - and nine out of ten in all competitions.
The Merseysiders' only slip-up this term came on matchday four last month, when they fell to a shock 1-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest.
Since then, Liverpool have bounced back with six straight wins across the Premier League, the Carabao Cup and the Champions League. Most recently, Diogo Jota’s early goal gave the 19-time English champions a 1-0 top-flight victory on the road at Crystal Palace.
It was a costly triumph, however: first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker was forced off with a hamstring injury, and is set to miss several weeks.
Meanwhile, Chelsea’s first campaign under Enzo Maresca has started with four wins and just one defeat from seven Premier League games, leaving the Blues in fourth, four points behind Liverpool.
The West Londoners, who haven‘t finished in the top four since the 2021/22 season, head to Anfield on a seven-game unbeaten run in all competitions. In their final run-out before international week, Chelsea drew 1-1 with Forest at Stamford Bridge, Noni Madueke’s equaliser earning the hosts a point.

At Anfield, Chelsea have won just once in the Premier League in the last 10 years - a 1-0 victory in March 2021, secured thanks to Mason Mount‘s first-half goal.
