How Chelsea could line up against Liverpool

Ahead of the huge Premier League clash between Liverpool and Chelsea on Sunday, Sports Mole looks at how the Blues could line up.

Chelsea are aiming to make it five wins in a row when they travel to Anfield to take on Premier League leaders Liverpool on Sunday.

The Blues beat Slavia Prague 1-0 in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie on Thursday, adding to three successive victories in the top flight.

Maurizio Sarri's side have some momentum on their side, having last gone three in a row without dropping points back in September, but they cannot afford to let up as the top-four race remains incredibly tight at this late stage.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how Chelsea could line up for their high-profile clash with Liverpool this weekend.

Sarri made seven changes to his starting lineup for Thursday's trip to the Czech capital, only bringing on Eden Hazard, N'Golo Kante and Ruben Loftus-Cheek in the final half-hour.

All three players are expected to feature from the off on Sunday, with Loftus-Cheek nailing down a midfield spot to the left of Kante and Jorginho.

Fellow academy graduate Callum Hudson-Odoi has also been handed back-to-back starts in the Premier League and, after being left out of the squad against Slavia Prague, he should keep that run going.

Elsewhere, Emerson is carrying a knock but should be OK to return to the side in place of Marcos Alonso, who scored the winning goal at the Sinobo Stadium.
