Chelsea are going to be battered in the first 20 minutes with 4 goals and then Liverpool will keep it tight.
We all know how this is going to go. They are starting 4 forwards.

So weird looking at Chelsea’s squad
Doesn’t resemble a Chelsea team at all it’s just a load of random names thrown together over the past 12 months
Got my popcorn ready for Disasi as well. He’s going to get pelted in this league, way too slow for the prem.

After 800m, they still don’t look threatening
That Chelsea side looks so average.
What the hell is that lineup from Liverpool?
4-1-5?
4-1-5?
No defensive midfielders for the Scouse 
That Chelsea XI will get torn to ribbons. Bunch of new players and youngsters tossed together with a new manager. Chaos.
Liverpools team is very attack minded. Could cost them or they could blow Chelsea away.
If this Liverpool Chelsea game is another 0-0 they need to just scrap this fixture.
Chelsea have spent a whole lot of money just for that to be their starting eleven for the first game of a new season.
Proper Keegan line up.
Guessing Alexis Mac as 6 and then Gapko and Hungary guy as advanced midfielders but bit bizarre they've left Jones out when he played well in the run in and is an actual CM.
Not a chance the game finishes 0-0 this time. Liverpool as top heavy as it gets and Chelsea just look extremely average. BBC have Chelsea as 3 at the back with James/Chillwell pushed forward. As if cowardly Poch would dare.

Bissouma looks to be back to his best.
Liverpool have the better individuals, but I think Chelsea will have the better balanced XI. Difficult one to call, but there are definitely goals in this.
Yes. That's what I will call him.
Maddison's been great. If that was Kane on the end of that ball instead of Richarlison it's 100% a goal
It's the same basic formation we play. A #6, supported by one of the defenders moving into midfield beside him, behind two attacking midfielders.
Gakpo is just being used as the AM in this case. When they sign a DM Mac Allister will presumably shift forward to take that spot.
I thought they bought a few weeks ago?They already did. That bloke who just poked the ball into his own net cost them the same as Martinez cost us.
Classic Pochettino coward lineup vs Klopp offensive lunatic lineup.
Looking forward to it.
Looking forward to it.
Mbesuma is an enigma. Has been the best player in this game as far as am concerned but always has potential to do stupid stuff from being casual
I agree. I've not seen him before (don't watch a lot of Spurs games) but I'm very impressed. So calm on the ball and very good at protecting it at his feet.
Chelsea‘s line up screams mid table.
Mbeumo?
No beuno.
We will have to see, but it does look a lot of money for not much. Losing Nkunku is a big blow.
They have decided to play without the midfield.
Disagree he looks genuine quality.
Dippers playing Macallister as a one man midfield.
Almost looks like a 'Jose protesting against the board' lineup.

Jackson will get a hat trick.
Liverpool will batter Chelsea.
Brentford are so comfortable at playing out from the back.
No need when you’re just playing against a mishmash of names that Chelsea have just conjured up.No defensive midfielders for the Scouse
Three of those chelsea players are made up.
I just hope one of them get battered (preferably Liverpool but I'd enjoy a Chelsea battering too)
The spurs DLP not the Brentford forward.
No buemo
