Team set-up

How will the two teams line up?

Confirmed line-ups are published about an hour before kick-off.

Home

Liverpool

Liverpool have a squad deep enough to challenge for the title. They squeeze opponents at Anfield, so Chelsea will need a disciplined low block to stay in the game.

Away

Chelsea

Chelsea are built to dominate the ball. They should have most of the possession on their trip to Anfield and keep Liverpool pinned in their own half for long spells.

Risk radar

What could change the prediction?

The news that would move our numbers before kick-off.

  • If Liverpool name a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would cut several points from their win chance. Line-ups are out an hour before kick-off.

  • If Chelsea score first

    The favourite has to chase the game, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.

  • If a red card comes in the first hour

    Going down to ten men changes the expected-goals picture completely, whichever side it hits.

Preview

Liverpool vs Chelsea match preview

Liverpool host Chelsea in front of their own fans, and the Goexch numbers lean towards Liverpool. The expected-goals gap (2.02 for Liverpool, 0.87 for Chelsea) is the clearest signal, and it is where our 64% for Liverpool comes from. Chelsea's best chance is to keep it level into the last 30 minutes, when the draw becomes a real possibility.
