Last season's runner-up, Liverpool, will face the current league leaders, Chelsea. The channel "Viasat Sport Baltic" will broadcast this and four other EPL matches. Liverpool players and their fans have not forgotten one of the most painful defeats in the previous season when the club, after 11 consecutive home wins, lost 0:2 to Chelsea. That defeat essentially blocked Liverpool's path to the champions' title. In this championship, Liverpool is struggling - they have earned 14 points and are in 7th place. Their attacking leader, Daniel Sturridge, is still unable to play due to an injury. In the Premier League, Liverpool has only scored one point in the last two matches. Brendan Rodgers' team is also performing weakly in the UEFA Champions League, where they have only accumulated three points in four matches. However, the hosts of the Anfield stadium are determined to fight only for victory on Saturday. B. Rodgers also talked about this. Chelsea, who is currently in first place, has 26 points and has not suffered any defeats yet. The "Aristocrats" have also been successful in the Champions League. However, in the last round, they failed to beat the humble club Maribor (1:1). The clashes between Liverpool and Chelsea in recent years have been back and forth.
