OFFICIAL: Chelsea line-up vs Liverpool – Ziyech starts
Chelsea face Liverpool at Anfield in just under an hour, and the teams are in!
This is a vital game after our draw at the weekend, and with Liverpool chasing us in the race for the top 4, avoiding defeat is crucial. There are three changes to Thomas Tuchel’s team from the weekend.
The back three remains the same, as we’d expect with Thiago Silva out. In midfield, Jorginho comes in to replace Mateo Kovacic, while N’Golo Kante keeps his place.
Out wide, Ben Chilwell gets to keep his spot on the left flank, while it’s Reece James preferred to CHO on the right.
The front 3 is shifted once again – Timo Werner leads the line this time, supported by Hakim Ziyech and Mason Mount in behind.
This is a huge moment for Ziyech – we can’t believe he’s still getting picked given his form, and he’s simply got to perform tonight,
