Chelsea v Liverpool: Five duels to watch in FA Cup clash
Chelsea were lucky to gain a point away at Bournemouth last Saturday while Liverpool lost their first league game of the 2019/20 Premier League season.
Will Klopp’s men respond to the challenge or will Lampard develop belief in his players? In their previous two encounters this season, Liverpool won 2-1 at the Bridge and beat the Blues on penalties to win the UEFA Super Cup, a sign that this could be a very close affair.Klopp will drop Lovren for Joel Matip, who is back after injury and is a better man-marker than the Croat.
In Roberto Firmino, Liverpool possess one of the best pressers of the ball and also a good user of the ball in offensive positions. Firmino will target getting the ball off Jorginho, or pressing the midfielder into making mistakes with his passing.Marcos Alonso scored Chelsea’s two goals in the much-needed 2-2 away result to Bournemouth while Trent Alexander-Arnold has provided 14 assists in the 38 matches he has played in this season.
Lampard said on his team’s website: “The team I put out should give everything to compete with Liverpool, as we have done twice this season. We competed very well against them and were probably unfortunate on both occasions to lose.”
