Liverpool will lock horns with Chelsea in the Premier League matchday 3 at Anfield on Saturday. The kick-off is at 18:30 CEST.

Preview

Having finished third and fourth respectively in the 2020/21 PL season, both Liverpool and Chelsea maintain 100% records in the current English top flight campaign. Jurgen Klopp's men had little trouble defeating Norwich City 3-0 two weeks ago before claiming a 2-0 win against Burnley over the weekend. Thomas Tuchel's side, for their part, destroyed Crystal Palace 3-0 on the opening day and then managed a 2-0 victory against Arsenal in the North West London derby last Sunday.

Team news

Andy Robertson is set to return to the Reds' starting XI on Saturday after missing the opening two matches through an injury while it remains to be seen if Fabinho features this time around as he sat out the Burnley win due the death of his father. Christian Pulisic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, meanwhile, remain dubtful for the Blues after contracting Covid-19 lately.

Prediction

Both teams are yet to concede a single goal this term so far and thus there's a huge possibility of this clash going down to the wire with one or two goals deciding its outcome - something that happened in their last head-to-head encounter when Mason Mount's only strike earned Chelsea all three points at Anfield in March. Therefore, we can't envisage a goal fest taking place in Merseyside this time around. As for a potential winner, we'd give a little advantage to the current Champions League holders as Tuchel's crop look too good to compete with following Romelu Lukaku's return to Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea not to lose and total under 3.5 at 2.08 with 1XBET.
