Liverpool are looking to pick up their first Premier League win of the calendar year against Chelsea but the clash could also have huge significance on the race for the top four.
The Reds' recent struggles have seen them fade out of contention recently and their defeat away at Brighton saw the gap increase to 10 points.
Both Jurgen Klopp and Graham Potter have prepared with injury-hit sides as Liverpool go into the encounter without Virgil van Dijk and Luis Diaz, to name just a couple. Meanwhile, the Londoners will be without the likes of full-back duo Ben Chilwell and Reece James, despite making positive strides in their bid for full fitness this week.
