Liverpool v Chelsea Football Preview
Chelsea travel to Anfield likely full of confidence this weekend, but for both teams this will be the first real test of their title credentials.
The visitors have put Arsenal and Crystal Palace to the sword already, while Liverpool have beaten Norwich and Burnley so far in this first season back to normal for the Premier League.
The Anfield roar always plays a big part in these massive home games for Liverpool, who haven’t lost at their own ground in the last eight games they’ve played in all competitions.
Our NetBet win probability counter has this one split almost exactly down the middle, with a Liverpool win at 38%, a draw at 29% and a Chelsea win at 33% likely.
Key players on both sides will be the attackers, with Diego Jota, Romelu Lukaku and Mo Salah absolutely key to their teams’ victory.
One of these sides has to lose their winning start, and we reckon that it will be a very tough ask to pick between them.
We’ve taken a look at the odds, and have made out picks and predictions for the weekend’s big game.
Liverpool v Chelsea Football Odds
Liverpool, as the hosts, are very slight favourites at 29/20 for victory, but realistically, the bookies can’t split them with Chelsea sitting as tiny underdogs at 37/20. The draw is priced at 9/4, which isn’t the worst price given the starts both sides have made.
Liverpool v Chelsea Football Betting Tips
Odds are correct at the time of publication and are subject to change.
Liverpool to win – 29/20
This is a great price for what we feel is a really solid bet, given the history of these two sides. We know that Chelsea, like most Premier league teams, don’t love coming to Anfield, and we reckon that Liverpool will really fancy their chances, despite their rivals’ great start to the year. They’re the home side, and Chelsea aren’t necessarily unbeatable, so this price is definitely worth taking a look at in the long run.
Chelsea to win and both to score – 19/4
A 2, or 3-1 win away from home for Chelsea? We love this price and reckon this is probably the more likely outcome than a Liverpool win. This could definitely be something that makes you money this weekend.
Romelu Lukaku to score anytime – 6/4
We’re fairly confident that any Chelsea tips we offer this season will include backing Lukaku to score any time, especially when the odds are above evens. The Belgian is one of the best strikers in the world, and backed by Chelsea’s impressive midfield, we could see him competing with Mo Salah for the Golden Boot this year.
