Chelsea is practically in the final of the Conference League. However, the battle for the Champions League zone continues in the Premier League and they have a tough schedule until the end, starting with this match. Despite some mistakes, Chelsea managed to win in the last two rounds and has six wins and one draw in their last seven home games in the league. However, their last home win against Liverpool in the Premier League was back in 2018.
Liverpool recorded a championship victory with 5:1 at home against Tottenham and has already secured the title. So the outcome of the upcoming match will certainly depend on the motivation and any changes that may occur in Arne Slot's lineup. Liverpool stumbled in some of their recent away games before, and any mistake now is irrelevant for the team.
Prediction: Chelsea win, over 2.5 goalsChelsea needs the victory, while Liverpool is no longer chasing anything and will play a ceremonial match. The motivation of the hosts should be much greater in this case and therefore I would prefer their victory here. Liverpool will play without pressure, perhaps more freely, so goals in the match are not a bad choice either.
