Comments and predictions for Chelsea vs Liverpool: Blocking the way of the new champion

Latest Chelsea vs Liverpool squad information

Liverpool will have an unchanged or even strengthened squad for the trip to London, with manager Slot saying Conor Bradley has returned to training and could return for the game.

Joe Gomez is still struggling with a hamstring problem and will be out for a few more weeks, but is likely to be Liverpool's only injury. Slot confirmed he will make a number of changes to his squad once the title is secured.

Mohamed Salah, though, is almost certain to continue playing. After scoring his 28th Premier League goal of the season against Spurs, he needs just one more to equal Didier Drogba's record for most goals in a season by a player over 30, set in 2009-10.

On Chelsea's side, coach Maresca confirmed that both goalkeeper Robert Sanchez and striker Christopher Nkunku are awaiting fitness assessments after missing the win over Djurgardens. Sanchez is more likely to play.

Chelsea are still without a number of key players: Wesley Fofana (hamstring), Omari Kellyman (thigh), Marc Guiu (thigh), Aaron Anselmino (unknown reason) and Mykhaylo Mudryk (suspension).

Jackson – who scored twice against Djurgardens – is in fine form, having scored the only goal as Chelsea beat Everton last week, his first goal from outside the box in the Premier League.

Latest Chelsea vs Liverpool football prediction

It is only a matter of time before Liverpool regain the top spot in English football, even though former player Dominic Solanke silenced Anfield with his opening goal for Tottenham last weekend.

However, as has been evident since Arne Slot took over, Liverpool have always managed to overcome adversity, scoring five goals without reply when just one goal would have been enough to seal the Premier League title with four games remaining.

The win over Spurs was a day of records and celebrations: Liverpool equalled Manchester United's record of 20 Premier League titles, Slot became only the fifth manager to win the Premier League in his first season – and the first Dutchman to do so – and helped his team equal a 129-year-old goalscoring record.

Fans at Anfield will see their team lift the Premier League trophy on home soil for the first time – something that was impossible in 2020 due to the COVID pandemic. However, Slot’s side still have a target: eight more points to take them past the 90-point mark.

May is usually a happy month for Liverpool, as they went unbeaten in their last 20 Premier League games in the final month of the season, although their most recent defeat came against Chelsea.

Seven years after beating Liverpool at Stamford Bridge in May 2018, Chelsea will face a team that has already won the Premier League for the seventh time – and in the previous six, they have won just one game, against Man United in 2012-13.

However, Enzo Maresca's team are in good form with three consecutive wins in all competitions, opening up hopes of a positive end to the season both domestically and in Europe.

Barring a major surprise at home, Chelsea are all but certain to reach the Conference League final after a 4-1 win over Djurgardens in the first leg of their semi-final, having previously beaten Fulham and Everton in the Premier League.

Thanks to Brentford’s win over Nottingham Forest, Chelsea are now fifth and in contention for Champions League qualification. Chelsea have not failed to score in a home game since losing to Man City in August – they have scored in 24 consecutive games at Stamford Bridge.

Although Nicolas Jackson scored against Liverpool in October, that goal could not prevent Chelsea from losing 2-1 – a defeat that extended their winless streak against the Reds to double digits.
