It’s the shock of the day across the Channel. Liverpool hosts Chelsea this Wednesday at 9:15 p.m. for the 22nd day of the Premier League, a match to follow live with commentary on our site. Currently at the top of the standings with two points ahead of Arsenal, who have a match in hand, the Reds will want to win in front of their home crowd to keep their lead against the Gunners and Manchester City, just five points away with a match of less. For their part, the Blues are still stuck in 10th place.

To do this, Jürgen Klopp aligned a 4-3-3 with a defense made up of young Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk and Gomez. Still deprived of the injured Salah, the German technician lined up an attack made up of Jota, Nunez and Diaz. For Chelsea, the French Disaso and Badiashile start while Nkunku and Malo Gusto are on the bench.

The official compositions:

Liverpool: Alisson – Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Gomez – Jones, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai – Jota, Nunez, Diaz.

Chelsea: Petrovic – Disasi, Silva, Badiashile, Chilwell – Caicedo, Fernandez – Palmer, Gallagher, Sterling – Madueke.
