Liverpool vs Chelsea
Liverpool are hoping to win again following the 0-1 FA Cup success over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
In that match, Liverpool had 42% possession and 7 shots on goal with 2 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Liverpool was Harvey Elliott (13′). At the other end, Wolverhampton Wanderers got 11 attempts at goal with 2 of them on target.
At least three goals per match have been seen in 5 of the last 6 meetings where Liverpool have participated. Opposing sides scored 10 times in these games whereas Liverpool bagged a total of 9. We will have to find out if that trend can be sustained in this game.
Going into this encounter, Liverpool are unbeaten in their previous 2 home league matches.
Chelsea come into this clash following on from a 1-0 Premier League win with the downing of Crystal Palace in their previous game.
In that match, Chelsea had 63% possession and 15 attempts at goal with 5 of them on target. The only player to score for Chelsea was Kai Havertz (64′). At the other end, Crystal Palace had 10 shots on goal with 5 on target.
During their six most recent matches, Graham Potter’s Chelsea have found the net 5 times – earning them the goals scored per game average of 0.83.
In my opinion, Chelsea will need to put in a solid display to breach the defence of this Liverpool team who we think should manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.
Therefore, i predict a good battle with a 1-0 victory for Liverpool at the end of the 90 minutes.
