Liverpool News and Form
Liverpool have won every match in every competition that they have played so far this season. That’s some start from them and they are high in confidence. They had a tremendous week in beating PSG in the Champions League and then collecting a comfortable win over Southampton in the league on the weekend. The Reds have scored at least two goals in all but one of their matches this season. They have played four games at Anfield and have delivered eleven goals across those four wins there. They have only conceded in one home game as well this season so Liverpool to win to nil is at 11/4 odds* (betting odds taken from September 23rd, 2018 at 10:34 pm). It is unlikely that they are going to field their strongest side here and Under 2.5 goals is at 23/20 odds* (betting odds taken from September 23rd, 2018 at 10:34 pm).
Chelsea News and Form
The Blues failed to win a game for the first time this season as they picked up a 0-0 draw at West Ham in a Premier League London derby on the weekend. Interestingly Chelsea will be at home against Liverpool on the weekend in the Premier League and they are likely to keep as much in the tank for that one. Chelsea have netted at least two goals in all but two of their matches played this season. Those were in their two games played over the last week which was a 1-0 win at PAOK in the Champions League and then the draw with West Ham. With Chelsea not going to be at full strength here, seeing them get goals on the board because a difficult thing to come up with. They don’t look blessed with striking power as it is. Both teams NOT to score at 6/5 odds* (betting odds taken from September 23rd, 2018 at 10:34 pm) for the tie.

Liverpool v Chelsea Predictions
Liverpool to win: There is probably going to be very different lineups in this one then if it were a league game. So it could be a battle between the squads and with home advantage, we feel that Liverpool can get the job done. They will play their usual way and Chelsea may not have enough depth in them.
