Liverpool vs Chelsea LIVE: Premier League latest score, match stream, goal updates and fan reaction | OneFootball

Premier League weekend kicks off at Anfield

The Premier League weekend kicks off today with a huge clash at Anfield as Liverpool look to all but confirm a top-five finish, and Champions League qualification, while ending Chelsea’s hopes of a return to European football’s elite. Both teams lost their last game - against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest, respectively - and need a quick return to form.

Liverpool will be looking over their shoulders at Aston Villa and, further down, Brighton, Bournemouth and Brentford. A win today should see off the latter trio, and the return to fitness of Alexander Isak, who has shaken off a minor injury, will be key. Arne Slot will also hope to pick Giorgi Mamardashvili back between the sticks a week earlier than planned.

For Chelsea, they will also be playing their second-choice goalkeeper after Robert Sanchez was forced off against Forest, while Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho will also be missing. All eyes on Joao Pedro and Cole Palmer to produce the goods. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis from Dom Smith.
