Chelsea vs Liverpool Preview and Livestream
Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea were soaring early in the season, swatting every team in their path aside and a lot many pundits had the Blues as their title favourites this campaign. However, after those initial 10 wins from 14 came a rough patch for the Blues, in which they dropped valuable points against an under-strength Man Utd without a manager, a lackluster Wolves team and a COVID-stricken Everton side. Since then, things look to be getting back on track though and Chelsea fans will hope Romelu Lukaku continues to be among the goals, a surefire way to lead them to victory against Liverpool.
Having already amassed a mammoth 50 goals in the league thus far, Liverpool are the in-form team in Europe this season. However, their African superstars are likely to depart for AFCON this month, and they need to learn to cope with their absence soon. Jürgen Klopp’s intense style of play has got them the results so far, and a similar performance will be needed against title rivals Chelsea to propel them to within 3 points of the Premier League summit.
Chelsea vs Liverpool kicks off at the Stamford Bridge Stadium in London, England on Sunday, 2nd January 2022 at 4:30 PM GMT. This means that the game will start at 11:30 AM EST and 08:30 AM PST on the same day- Sunday, 2nd January 2022.

Chelsea vs Brighton Prediction
Chelsea boast an enormously talented squad and playing with home advantage they look pretty strong. Things won’t be as easy though against title challengers Liverpool and we expect them to suffer against the Reds. We fancy Liverpool to nick all 3 points with a 1-0 scoreline in what will be a clash of attack against defense.
