Premier League Big Match, Liverpool Vs Chelsea: Seeing How The Blues Ideal Formation At Anfield

JAKARTA - The Premier League will present a big match duel in the third week which will take place tomorrow Saturday. Liverpool are ready to host Chelsea at Anfield stadium.

Quoted from Sportmole.co.uk, Friday, Thomas Tuchel's squad will still play without Christian Pulisic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek. These two players are still undergoing quarantine due to exposure to COVID-19.

At the back, Thiago Silva will still be rested because he is not 100 percent fit after his appearance in the Copa America.

But, that's not a problem for the Blues considering Cesar Azpilicueta, Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger are ready to be mainstays.

Reece James, who produced a man-of-the-match appearance against Arsenal last week, will be looking to clinch the same honors by occupying the Blues' right-hand side. While Marcos Alonso remains on the left side.

N'Golo Kante is fit enough to feature on the bench at the Emirates on matchday 2. He is confirmed to replace Mateo Kovacic for a duet with Jorginho.

The competition for a place in Tuchel's attack was already rife before the arrival of £97.5 million player Romelu Lukaku. However, Kai Havertz and Mason Mount who started against Arsenal will be working hard to maintain their place at Anfield.
