Liverpool vs. Chelsea: Tips, Prognosis & Odds - 08/28/2021 - ENGLAND: Premier League

 

 Klopp vs. Tuchel - who will land the first big point?

From a purely statistical point of view, even before the premier league match between Liverpool and Chelsea kick off, the prognosis can be made that the home side will be facing hard work. In the past 36 league duels of these teams, the respective home team was only able to prevail in twelve cases. In contrast, there are 15 away wins.

In general, however, it should be pointed out at this point that all facts and figures are intended solely to provide information. In the end, however, what counts is on the pitch. And that's where things really get going on the holy green in Anfield at the weekend. After all, not only two top clubs meet, but also the two teams that are currently sharing second place in the table in England.

According to the Liverpool vs. Chelsea odds, the Reds are slightly favored, which may be due to the fact that the Champions League winner from 2019 only lost two of the last 13 Premier League games against his counterpart from 2021. The fact that it is by no means absurd to place a bet in the direction of the Londoners results on the one hand from interesting data, but on the other hand also from the enormous quality that the Blues have to offer.

Liverpool stats & current form

What do Felix Magath, Thomas Doll and Thomas Schaaf have in common? The three coaches mentioned were so far the only ones who have managed to defeat Jürgen Klopp three times in a row. Another Thomas could join this elite group next weekend. Thomas Tuchel is also in a direct duel with his BVB predecessor at the time with two victories in a row. Will the hat trick succeed on Saturday?

Exactly on the other hand, the LFC will want to defend itself with all its might, especially since one or the other series is at stake. For example, the Reds have seven league wins in a row across all seasons. Five times in a row, the champions of 2020 have now conceded no goals and always scored at least two goals of their own. This is also the case on the first two match days of the new Premier League season.

Liverpool want to regain their old home strength

After a 3-0 success at the start against newly promoted Norwich City, the men from Beatles City also left nothing to burn in the previous week's 2-0 home win against Burnley. The defense is currently benefiting from Van Dijk's return; On the offensive, Mo Salah currently seems to want to punish all of his critics who recently described him as "fed up". Diogo Jota is also in strong early form and could only become the fourth LFC player after Robbie Fowler, Daniel Sturridge and Sadio Mane, who scored on the first three match days.

Despite all the joy about the successful start to the season, two aspects must not be neglected in order to be able to give a suitable tip between Liverpool and Chelsea. On the one hand, the first two opponents, who are expected to be in the lower table segment in the final accounts, were not a real yardstick. On the other hand, the Reds presented themselves surprisingly vulnerable on Anfield Road as early as 2020/21. Six of the 19 home games played in the preseason were lost.

In terms of personnel, "Kloppo” can virtually draw on unlimited resources. Even Andy Robertson is again an option for a starting eleven, although his opponent Tsimikas recently knew how to convince. The actually so strong trio around Firmino, Salah and Mané is in danger of being blown up again. Jota should keep his place in the starting line-up instead of the former Hoffenheim Brazilian.

Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Matip, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Thiago; Salah, Jota, Mane

Chelsea stats & current form

Since Thursday evening it has been clear that Chelsea FC has both the footballer of the year and the coach of the year in their own ranks. The two winners, Jorginho and Tuchel, shone at the UEFA gala in their absence, but they had a good reason for it. After all, the absolute top game of the third game day in the Premier League is on the agenda on Saturday evening.

At first glance, the fact that a prediction of the success of the visiting team will come true in the duel between Liverpool and Chelsea is seen as a little less likely than the champions' home win in 2020. On closer inspection, however, it becomes clear that a 50:50 duel awaits us, one or the other aspect also speaks for the Londoners.

Chelsea won last year at Anfield

First of all, for example, the equally successful start of the season for the Tuchel team, who scored two wins against Crystal Palace (3: 0) and city rivals Arsenal (2: 0), both times without conceding a goal and also won their first European title in the Supercup after taking penalties against Villarreal. In terms of self-confidence, the capitals are perhaps even a little stronger, especially since the transfer of Romelu Lukaku gave the team an additional push.

Also interesting is the fact that only Manchester United have historically won at Anfield Road more often than Chelsea Football Club. The last of the total of seven away wins on Merseyside was only last year, when Thomas Tuchel's protégés celebrated a 1-0 win abroad.

In the new venture, the freshly named Trainer of the Year will probably just have to do without the Pulisic and Loftus-Cheek, who tested positive. Kante and Ziyech, who missed their deserved success at the Emirates Stadium against Arsenal last week, should also move back into the team.

Expected formation of Chelsea:

Mendy; Azpilicueta, Christensen, Rudiger; James, Jorginho, Edge, Alonso; Mount, Havertz; Lukaku

Betting base forecast & Liverpool - Chelsea tip

Although it is certainly too early to start a discussion about the championship favorites in the Premier League, it doesn't take a prophet to claim that Liverpool and Chelsea want to have an important say in the battle for the title. In order for a first exclamation mark to be set against a direct competitor, a three-point must be achieved on Saturday evening.

Lower odds on the home win are offered between Liverpool and Chelsea, even though the hosts only had the upper hand in exactly one third of the past 36 Premier League matches. The guest prevailed twice in 2020/21 as well. We would not rule out the same for the coming weekend, especially since the Blues have so far left an even more stable impression and may be qualitatively a bit stronger than the Klopp-Elf.

Free soccer picks

Against this background and the fact that Tuchel recently won the personal duel between two former BVB coaches against "Kloppo" twice in a row, we decide on a tip for an away win before the top game Liverpool against Chelsea.

We can use the Interwetten app to play this with a top rate of 2.95 on the three-way market or switch to the two-way market. For the less risky "Draw No Bet" there is still an attractive 2.08 at the top at the bookmaker Unibet.
