Liverpool has had a dominant start to the 2024/25 season under new coach Arne Slot, winning nine of their ten competitive matches across the Premier League, Champions League, and EFL Cup. The only setback came in a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest, but since then, Liverpool has bounced back with six consecutive wins. Slot’s emphasis on defensive stability and structured positional play, compared to the more chaotic style of former manager Jurgen Klopp, has paid dividends. With only two goals conceded in seven league matches and five clean sheets, Liverpool’s defence has been the best in the league, allowing just 16 shots on goal during even-score situations,On the other hand, Chelsea has also had a strong start to the season under new coach Enzo Maresca. With 14 points from seven matches, Chelsea sits in fourth place, having navigated through a large squad overhaul. Despite these challenges, Chelsea has been particularly strong away from home, winning all three of their away matches so far. However, to win at Anfield, Chelsea will need a standout performance against a defensively solid Liverpool team. Also, the handicap for Enzo Marseca will be that he is play without two starting defenders Wesley Fofana and Marc Cucurella. This will be a problem as Chelsea right now doesn't have natural left-back. Liverpool’s current form, combined with their defensive strength at home, makes them clear favourites. While Chelsea has been impressive on the road, winning at Anfield will be a difficult task, and Liverpool’s disciplined style under Slot should be enough to secure a victory. A 2-0 or 2-1 win for Liverpool seems likely, with Chelsea’s attack probably scoring but eventually Liverpool's offensive quality should be overcome.
在新教练阿恩·斯洛特的带领下,利物浦在2024/25赛季取得了压倒性的开局,在英超、欧冠和联赛杯的10场比赛中赢下了9场。唯一的挫折是0比1输给诺丁汉森林,但从那以后,利物浦以六连胜反弹。与前任主教练尤尔根·克洛普更加混乱的风格相比,斯洛特强调防守的稳定性和结构化的阵型,这给他带来了回报。7场联赛中只丢2球,5场零封,利物浦的防守是联赛中最好的,在平局的情况下只有16次射门。另一方面,切尔西在新教练恩佐·马雷斯卡的带领下也有一个强劲的开局。七场比赛积14分,切尔西在经历了一次大规模的阵容调整后排名第四。尽管面临着这些挑战,切尔西在客场表现得尤为强劲,迄今为止,他们赢得了三场客场比赛。然而,要想在安菲尔德取胜,切尔西需要在对阵防守稳固的利物浦时有出色的表现。此外,恩佐·马尔塞卡的障碍将是他没有两名首发后卫韦斯利·福法纳和马克·库库雷拉。这将是一个问题,因为切尔西现在没有一个天然的左后卫。利物浦目前的状态,加上他们在主场的防守实力,使他们成为夺冠热门。虽然切尔西在客场表现令人印象深刻,但在安菲尔德取胜将是一项艰巨的任务,而利物浦在斯洛特的带领下纪律严纪的风格应该足以确保胜利。利物浦很可能以2-0或2-1取胜,切尔西的进攻可能会进球,但最终利物浦的进攻质量应该会被克服。
