Chelsea vs Liverpool LIVE SCORE: Premier League updates as Blues look to give top-5 hopes a boost with win over champs

Super Sunday

Afternoon and welcome to the headline fixture of this weekend as Champions League-chasing Chelsea take on newly-crowned champions Liverpool at the Bridge. 

It’s a fixture that, regardless of where the two are, still gets the blood pumping. Even more so, with quite a bit on the line for the hosts. 

Champions League football has long been in short in West London. Three years out of the competition has sparked frustrations from supporters and has diminished the credibility of the fairly new ownership group. This year has prested the best opportunity, especially given the addition of a fifth place - which the Blues currently occupy. 

Those worries are no more for Liverpool. Concerns about how Arne Slot would adapt to English football have been answered resoundingly and are firmly back on their perch after last week’s coronation as league champions. 

82 points and continuing. It’s just about showing the rest why they are champions.

It’s Blue v Red. South v North. Chels v Pool. Kick-off at 4.30pm
