Liverpool Recent Form: Last 5
Chelsea Recent Form: Last 5
Key Factors
Chelsea is experiencing a historic collapse, having lost 6 consecutive Premier League matches and scoring only 1 goal in that period despite maintaining an average xG of 1.82.
Liverpool remains highly motivated at Anfield, needing a win to mathematically secure a return to the Champions League for the 2026-27 season.
Major injury crisis for both sides: Liverpool is missing Salah and potentially Isak, while Chelsea is without their first-choice goalkeeper Sanchez and several key wingers.
Injuries & Absentees
Liverpool faces a significant creative void with Mohamed Salah (thigh) and Alexander Isak (groin) sidelined; Arne Slot is likely to rely on Gakpo and the young Ngumoha. Chelsea’s situation is worse: with Robert Sanchez out, the mistake-prone Filip Jorgensen starts in goal. Furthermore, the absence of Estevão and Mykhailo Mudryk (suspension) leaves interim coach Calum McFarlane with almost no natural width.
