Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Chelsea vs Liverpool

Chelsea

Chelsea are sixth in the league table after six games played and this will be Graham Potter's first game as Blues manager in the Premier League. The leadership of the Londoners decided to fire Thomas Tuchel, and in his place invited the ex-mentor of Brighton.

The change of coach should have a positive impact on Chelsea's performances, because before that the team really did not play in the best way. Londoners have a hard time scoring goals, and in defense, the defenders made too many mistakes. The Blues have a very important match in the Premier League ahead of them, in which the team must try to take all three points at home, despite the strength of the new opponent.

Liverpool

Liverpool have also had a poor start to the Premier League this season and are currently in seventh position. In addition, the wards of Jurgen Klopp lost in the match of the first round of the Champions League to Napoli with a devastating score and are clearly not in the best mood.

It is very important for the Reds to start winning, otherwise the team may fall significantly behind the leading group of teams and lose the chance to compete for the championship title. Liverpool simply have nowhere to retreat, the team must play to win in every game and the away match against Chelsea will definitely not be an exception.

Game Totals Prediction

The central match of the new round of the championship of England, in which the teams will meet among themselves, which did not start the new season in the best way. Both Chelsea and Liverpool are still in the catching-up cohort and are clearly in need of points. A face-to-face meeting is not only an opportunity to take three points, but also a good chance to stop your direct competitor. In the last matches between each other, the rivals did not play very effectively, so you should not expect a large number of goals in the new match, given its importance. A good choice would be a bet on total under 2.5 goals for 2.00.
