First day of the Premier League and already a clash this Sunday between Chelsea and Liverpool (5:30 p.m.). A meeting to follow live commented on our site.
To varying degrees, Chelsea and Liverpool have missed out on their 2022-23 season. Respectively twelfth and fifth in the last financial year, the two clubs intend to turn the page and do a lot this year. And it won’t be easy, especially since fate placed them opposite each other on the first day of the English championship. This Sunday (5:30 p.m.), there will be sport.
The workforce of the Blues has been reshuffled again, in particular due to the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino on the bench. The Argentinian coach should opt for a 4-3-3 with the Sterling-Mudryk-Jackson trio up front. Behind, Thiago Silva will hold the barracks in central defense while James and Chilwell will occupy the corridors. On the Reds side, Jürgen Klopp will also choose a 4-3-3. A priori no real surprise ahead with Salah, Diaz and Gakpo. Szoboszlai in the middle, just like Mac Allister. Van Dijk in defense and Alisson in front of the cage.
The probable compositions:
Chelsea: Sanchez-James, Thiago Silva, Colwill, Chilwell-Fernandez, Gallagher, Chukwuemeka-Sterling, Mudryk, Jackson
Liverpool: Alisson – Alexander-Arnold, Konaté, Van Dijk, Robertson – Mac Allister, Jones, Szoboszlai – Salah, Diaz, Gakpo
