(4-2-3-1): James and Palmer starts but Caicedo and five other first team players all out as Enzo Maresca confirms a shocking lineup against Liverpool

Yes, Chelsea too. Now their squad is much more close to being fully fit, they have indeed been in fine form and they’re just four points behind the league leaders, which happens to be the side that they’ll face in the Sunday matinee.
Blues boss Enzo Maresca will be without the services of two of his first choice defenders, so we’ll see who Liverpool manager Arne Slot attempts to exploit that.
