Chelsea

Team shape · 05
How will the two teams set up?
Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.
At home
Chelsea
Chelsea carry a title-level squad. They suffocate opponents at Stamford Bridge, so Liverpool will need a disciplined low block to stay in it.
Away
Liverpool
Liverpool are set up to control the ball. They should own most of the possession on the road at Stamford Bridge and keep Chelsea penned in for long stretches.
