Chelsea are again in motion once more this Saturday, they usually face fellow Premier League strugglers Liverpool. That sentence alone feels very bizarre to kind!
The membership’s struggles are proven of their league positions, with Liverpool and Chelsea each at the moment on 28 factors in ninth and tenth place, with the aforementioned solely forward of objective distinction. An actual signal of how each golf equipment and managers have been in a rut these days. Think about pondering Liverpool and Chelsea could be in a mid-table battle in January, at first of this season!
Liverpool’s demise this season has actually shocked me, however I’m definitely not going to be fooled by it. They’ll be again, I’m positive. Simply as Chelsea can be additionally.
Liverpool have a 52% win chance, and Chelsea have simply 24%. Regardless of type of each golf equipment, I nonetheless see the house facet because the favourites right here. Chelsea because the underdogs can typically be a very good factor as of late, so I’m pleased with that.
Liverpool have misplaced to Brighton and Brentford of their final two league video games, conceding six objectives. There may be completely scope for us to harm them on Saturday, however they’ve scope to harm us as nicely, having a significantly better objectives scored ratio than us this season.
Graham Potter could have some huge choices to make, the primary one being the formation. That is one prediction that he may go for:
I feel it’ll primarily be the identical crew from the Crystal Palace win, with lots of them not deserving to be dropped. One wildcard I’m excited about although is David Fofana. I do know he was ignored final recreation, however Kai Havertz missed coaching yesterday and we all know how out of favour (poor) Pierre Emerick Aubameyang is, so possibly Potter throws Fofana in. I additionally do suppose we are going to see a debut for Mykhailo Mudryk, basing off what Potter did with Joao Felix.
I don’t suppose we could have Reece James or Ben Chilwell obtainable for a bit longer but both, sadly.
Let’s hope Chelsea can use the excitement round a win final weekend, in addition to including the thrilling participant Mudryk to the squad!
