First leg of the Capital One Cup semifinal between the two giants, what a game to watch on Tuesday!
Both teams are expected to field very strong lineups, even though the League Cup is a lesser trophy, they both want it. Obviously Liverpool actually booked this on the calendar as one of the matches of the season, because it is the only competition these lads have a realistic chance of winning.
Liverpool: Mignolet; Can, Skrtel, Sakho; Moreno, Lucas, Henderson, Markovic; Gerrard, Coutinho; Sterling
Chelsea: Cech; Luis, Zouma, Terry, Ivanovic; Fabregas, Matic; Hazard, Oscar, Willian; Costa
It should be a good game, as Liverpool is playing better recently under Rodgers' new 3-4-3 formation which brought them 3 wins on the spin. Chelsea are rolling themselves, winning 5-0 in Wales against Swansea in the last BPL matchday.
When these two meet there are always goals, there have been over 2,5 goals in 3 of the last 4 meetings, including the 2-1 win Chelsea got at Anfield earlier this season. Even more interesting is that in the last 7 meetings, 6 times both teams scored. With both wanting the win tonight and going at it, with both scoring goals lately, surely both will score again tonight.
There's the argument that each team held 2 clean sheets in a row and that's valid, but in a direct meeting like this I highly doubt that will happen.
Liverpool - Chelsea 2-2
