Liverpool take on the visitors Chelsea in the round 34 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday April 14th at Anfield (Liverpool).
Liverpool had a great match in the week in the Champions League against Porto, recording confident 2-0 win. Of course there will be an second leg in Portugal, where the Reds still need to defend the advantage. But judging by the game at Anfield, the winners of the clash and the team that will take place in semifinals is quite obvious. As for the situation in the Premier League, everything is quite complicated. At the moment, Liverpool are ahead of Man City by 2 points, but they played for the match less. However, the “Citizens” still have play against Tottenham, not only in the Champions League, but also in the national league and also against neighbors Manchester United. It is quite possible that in some of these matches (most likely in the match against the United) City will lose points. But even if this happens, Liverpool cannot lose points. Even in the match against strong Chelsea.

Chelsea in are battling for bronze medals, but much more important here is a place in the Champions League. Yes, they can get into the main club tournament by winning the prize of his younger brother, I mean the Europa League. But the place in the top 4 would be great for "the Pensioners. It would add to their confidence in the future. However, the battle for top-4 is fierce at the moment. Chelsea are 3rd with 66 points, Tottenham are 4th with 64, Arsenal 5th with 63 and the United are 6th with 61 points gained. Chelsea have to play 5 matches while three other teams have to play 6, which give them more chances to gain points.
Liverpool recorded their last win over Chelsea three years ago. Recent five head-to-heads ended with 2 wins of Chelsea and three draw, including their last clash at Stamford Bridge earlier this season. Another draw at Anfield would not satisfy the Reds. The hosts are in great from, recording six wins in a row in all competitions. On top of that, Liverpool had 2 more days to rest at they played on Tuesday in Champions League at home while Chelsea had to travel to Prague this Thursday for a Europa League clash with Slavia. This looks like great advantage at such late stage of the season. Sarri is still in the process of finding the best way to play in new league with new team while Klopp is working with the team for quite a while and has more overall experience. Chelsea are not losing to Liverpool for 3 years, but all the same, Liverpool are slightly more advantageous in the upcoming match due to his field where he won 14 out of 16 league matches and only 2 made a draw against Leicester and Man City.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win.
