Chelsea vs Liverpool: preview, betting odds, team news and kickoff time

Bet on Chelsea’s all-important Premier League clash against the new champions Liverpool at Housebets.com.

Chelsea’s game against Liverpool headlines this weekend’s round of games in the Premier League. With the season ending this month, every game matters, except if you are Liverpool.

The Reds have already sealed the title after beating Tottenham Hotspur in the last game on Sunday.

However, this is a big clash for Chelsea, just as it presents Liverpool manager Arne Slot with an opportunity to try new players.

Chelsea vs Liverpool preview

Chelsea and Liverpool renew their rivalry on Sunday, with the Blues needing the match more than the Reds.

A season that started on a promising note is in danger of ending on a disappointing note unless Enzo Maresca’s men pick up maximum points in their last four games of the season, starting with the match against Liverpool.

Although Chelsea are currently in pole position to achieve their goal, which is to qualify for the Champions League, they cannot afford to drop points again.

The game against Liverpool is a must-win as it puts them three points clear of Nottingham Forest in sixth place.

Maresca’s men come into the game on the back of a 4-1 win against Djurgarden in the first leg of their UEFA Conference League clash.

That should give them confidence going into the game against Liverpool. The Blues were also handed a boost on that same day after Forest lost 2-0 to Brentford on that same day.

Also, with Liverpool already crowned champions, Chelsea will definitely fancy their chances against Arne Slot’s men, who might still be reeling from last week’s celebrations.

Nonetheless, Liverpool will still do their job even though they might not match Chelsea’s intensity. The Reds are seeking a league double over Chelsea for the first time since they won the league in 2019-2020.

Ironically, Liverpool had also won the league when they hosted Chelsea in the second leg, with the Reds going on to win 4-1.

Liverpool will also feel like luck is on their side, as they have not lost any of their last 20 league game in the month of May, winning 16 and drawing 4.

Chelsea vs Liverpool Team News

Chelsea have a couple of injury worries, with the Blues likely to be without Robert Sanchez and Christopher Nkunku. Wesley Fofana (hamstring), Omari Kellyman (thigh), and Marc Guiu (thigh) will also miss the game.

As for Liverpool, they have no major injury worry aside from Joe Gomez. However, Slot might be tempted to ring changes and give some of the fringe players a chance to impress.

Italian international Federico Chiesa could come in for Luis Diaz, while Wataru Endo could also earn a rare start.

The Dutch tactician is unlikely to make too many changes, though, meaning the likes of Mohamed Salah, Virgil Van Dijk, and Trent Alexander-Arnold are likely to start.
