Liverpool is set to face Chelsea on Sunday in a matchup with surprising title implications. Arne Slot’s Reds sit top of the Premier League table with 18 points in 7 games and Enzo Maresca’s Blues. Recently, Liverpool have a strong record in the league against Chelesa. The Reds have won four and drawn five of the pair’s last 10 fixtures, and that doesn’t include three cup final victories along the way. Chelsea has completely revamped its squad in recent seasons – the starting XI Liverpool face on Sunday will hardly resemble the teams in recent clashes. Still, here are three…

However, Arne Slot is still dealing with some injury worries. Alisson Becker will miss the next few games after sustaining a hamstring injury in the win at Crystal Palace earlier this month while Alexis Mac Allister is a doubt. He was substituted at half-time against Palace with a groin injury and missed…
According to reports, Liverpool are ‘preparing’ a move to sign Arne Slot’s ‘priority’ target during the upcoming winter transfer window. The summer transfer window was frustrating for the Reds as they failed to sign Real Sociedad and Spain star Martin Zubimendi. Ahead of Slot‘s first season as head coach, Liverpool made it their priority to sign a new defensive midfielder and made Zubimendi their top target. Zubimendi has a £51m release clause in his contract and he was initially expected to say yes to the move, but he ultimately opted to stick with his boyhood club. Liverpool decided against signing…
Arne Slot could have up to four players missing for this weekend’s Premier League clash against Chelsea as domestic action returns from the international break. The Reds host Enzo Maresca’s side at Anfield on Sunday afternoon (4.30pm kick-off). Concerns over the fitness of Alexis Mac Allister, Caoimhin Kelleher and Kostas Tsimikas have been erased with both in action for their respective countries in the second game of the international break. That therefore suggests that all three will be fit enough to feature for Liverpool against Chelsea this weekend. There is more uncertainty over Federico Chiesa. The winger has missed the…
The Merseysiders were understood to be tracking the Danish star along with several Premier League outfits, including Chelsea and Tottenham. The traditionally left-sided footballer is an incredibly versatile option in the market having spent eight appearances in all competitions playing in four different positions. Most of these, intriguingly for the Reds, have come as a right-sided winger (four). Further to that point, it surely won’t have gone unnoticed by Liverpool’s recruitment department that the highly talented 19-year-old is left-footed. Patrick Dorgu has signed a new contract at Lecce Patrick Dorgu, to his immense credit, has not been fazed by speculation…

In the last two campaigns, City and Arsenal have been the top clubs in the country, competing for the title. Liverpool finished third last season but made a significant change with the appointment of Arne Slot as their new manager at the end of the campaign. Chelsea, meanwhile, has struggled in recent seasons and also has a new manager in charge. However, both Slot and Chelsea’s Enzo Maresca have made promising starts this term. Carragher suggests that Liverpool and Chelsea are two teams that City and Arsenal should be concerned about, as they have the potential to prevent last season’s…

Zubimendi looked set to become new Liverpool boss Arne Slot’s first summer signing in August, with his £51million release clause triggered and his current club, Real Sociedad, powerless. But, in a ruthless snub, Zubimendi rejected the Merseyside outfit, instead choosing to remain at the…
