New Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is relishing the prospect of facing Liverpool on the opening day of the season.
Chelsea will welcome Jurgen Klopp’s side to Stamford Bridge on August 13 to kick-off the new campaign. It will be Pochettino's first competitive game in charge at Stamford Bridge.
Liverpool will arrive in West London, boosted by the arrivals of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai. Mac Allister joined from Brighton & Hove Albion last month, while Szoboszlai completed his £60m move to Anfield from RB Leipzig over the weekend.
