Arsenal's loss to Bournemouth and Manchester City's last-minute win against Wolves has certainly added another layer of interest to Liverpool's showdown against Chelsea at Anfield.

The Reds have lost their top spot to rivals Man City and will want to reclaim it by winning today at all costs. Chelsea on the other hand will be looking to climb up into the top three as Enzo Maresca sees out his first season at Stamford Bridge.

Mikel Arteta's tragic loss to Bournemouth was certainly one of the most unexpected results this weekend. With The Gunners missing two crucial players in Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka, they fell victim to a 2-0 loss at Vitality Stadium.

Pep Guardiola's City on the other hand were gloomy with a draw in sight but defender John Stones made sure that The Cityzens returned home with three points to their name.

The Reds will have to be careful though as Slot has made three changes against The Blues. This is after an intense international break with a few players injured most notably first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker.

Liverpool gaffer Arne Slot makes strange decision with defender Conor Bradley Bradley's absence comes as a strange decision following his form at the international break

Caoimhin Kelleher will be replacing Alisson as expected. The Reds' third-choice goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros made his debut against Crystal Palace as Becker went down with an injury.

Kelleher wasn't in the squad due to an illness hence the Czech goalkeeper filled in for the Irishman. Today, Curtis Jones will replace Alexis Mac Allister citing the latter's injury at Selhurst Park.

However, Allister will still be on the bench for any backup. Andy Robertson will play in place of Greek international Konstantinos Tsimikas.

Perhaps the most interesting news is Conor Bradley's absence. Bradley played the full 90 minutes for his national side but will not be in the squad against Chelsea.

Although a substitute defender, Bradley provides a balanced depth at the backline. Liverpool Echo reported that Conor wasn't deemed fit enough to play against The Blues.

The right-back might have suffered a knock after playing every minute in the international break. Although there is no official news regarding the player, The Reds will be expecting a return for their Champions League clash against RB Leipzig.
