Match facts

Chelsea

  • Chelsea have lost each of their last three Premier League meetings with Liverpool; only once before have they lost more in a row against the Reds in the competition (four between November 2010 and May 2012).
  • Only Liverpool themselves (22) have won more Premier League matches against the reigning champions than Chelsea (15 – level with Manchester United); indeed, the Blues are unbeaten in their last 13 home league games against the previous season’s title-winning side (W7 D6), winning each of their last three in succession.
  • Chelsea finished the 2019-20 Premier League season with six consecutive home victories, last winning seven in a row at Stamford in Bridge in the competition in December 2017 under Antonio Conte.
  • Only against Aston Villa and Newcastle United (both 8) has Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud scored more top-flight goals in his career than he has against Liverpool (7); indeed, the Frenchman netted the winner the last time Chelsea defeated Liverpool in the Premier League in May 2018.
  • Timo Werner had 50% of Chelsea’s shots in his Premier League debut against Brighton on MD1 (5/10), though just one of these was on target.

Liverpool

  • After winning just one of their first 16 Premier League visits to Stamford Bridge between 1992-93 and 2007-08 (D4 L11), Liverpool have since won six of their last 12 league games away at Chelsea (D3 L3), including three of five under Jürgen Klopp (D1 L1).
  • Excluding games on the opening day of a season, this will be Liverpool’s first Premier League match against a side starting the day above them in the league table since October 2018, a 0-0 draw against Manchester City.
  • Since their 2019-20 title win was confirmed in June, Liverpool have conceded 15 goals in their eight Premier League games (W5 D1 L2) – their previous 15 league goals conceded came across a 23-game spell.
  • Roberto Firmino and Trent Alexander-Arnold scored home and away against Chelsea in last season’s Premier League; the last player to score in three consecutive league matches for Liverpool against the Blues was Ian Rush between December 1989-October 1990.
  • Salah was involved in more shots than any other Premier League player on the opening weekend of the season (13 – 9 shots, 4 chances created), with the Egyptian finding the net with all three of his shots on target against Leeds.

Predictions

Chelsea started their Premier League campaign with a 3-1 win away at the Amex stadium and Frank Lampard will have been pleased with the way that some of his new signings seem to be settling in. Timo Werner was a constant threat to Brighton and looks like he is going to adapt very quickly to the rigours of the Premier League.

Liverpool beat Leeds United 4-3 in their opening day fixture and while Jurgen Klopp will have been delighted to see his strikers picking up where they left off last season, he will have been concerned with the way Leeds picked their defence apart on way too many occasions.

If there is one certainty in this match, it’s that there will be goals. We fancy an entertaining, end to end clash between the two sides with honors even at the final whistle.
