Liverpool and Chelsea enter Saturday’s encounter deeply unsatisfied, although the former can still take a big jump towards Champions League qualification by beating the Blues.
Still, Arne Slot’s men were expected by many to not merely compete for the Premier League title this season, but go back-to-back at a canter. Securing their spot among Europe’s elite would’ve been regarded as the absolute bare minimum in preseason, and supporters are suddenly keen to see the back of the man who guided them through a memorable 2024–25 campaign.
Things are even bleaker for Chelsea, who have before traveled to Anfield late in the season and picked up the necessary result on their way to glory. This time, they visit Liverpool’s amphitheater merely aiming to bring to an end a historically bad run.
Monday’s woeful defeat to Nottingham Forest was their sixth on the bounce in the league, with their dreadful stretch leaving them down in ninth. BlueCo’s project can’t survive without European soccer, so Chelsea have got to kick into gear from out of nowhere during the remaining weeks of the season.
Here’s how you can watch the Saturday’s bout.

What’s Next for Liverpool, Chelsea?
Liverpool kick off the penultimate matchday of the 2025–26 Premier League season away at Aston Villa on Friday night. The Europa League finalists, like the Reds, are closing in on a top-five finish, so there’s unlikely to be too much riding on the fixture at Villa Park.
Chelsea, meanwhile, have the small matter of the FA Cup final, where they face Manchester City at Wembley. Victory under the arch would offer supporters some solace amid a wretched campaign. They’re next in Premier League action the following Tuesday, hosting a relegation-threatened Tottenham Hotspur.
