Liverpool vs Chelsea is the biggest game of the week and probably the game of the season for both the teams. If Liverpool win it, they will be in the mix for the title charge. If we win it, we would surely be in pole position for the title and 90% sure of winning it. A draw and we would still be the likely champions. This is probably our most difficult match of the season left and we are lucky Pool are a lot weaker without Mane. I would still take a draw before the game has started.

Not for me. Liverpool can't win it from here. They are 10 points behind.
Spurs are the biggest "worry" but I don't think they quite have it them to win.
Think Chelsea pretty much have to throw it away from here.
Liverpool are currently 4th behind Arsenal and Tottenham, the latter in far better form?
Eh I support Chelsea and not Pool.
Liverpool are in rough form recently, pretty sure Chelsea will get a result.
Hope Chelsea spank them.
I know, I just don't see your logic other than "it's Tottenham, lads" but then again we're talking about Liverpool too.
They're currently behind Tottenham so, IMO you still need Tottenham to drop points as well as you've got a few big games coming up. Momentum could quickly change.
You're about 90% there though.
Nervy fixture, but I really hope we hammer them and make up for that slip earlier in the season. Hate the cnuts.
Hope you guy's smash them.
The clash of the slipping giants?
The two most loathesome and overrated managers in the league. I hope they both clatter into eachother while running around like idiots at the side of the pitch
When we slip, we get back up and win the Champions League a few seasons later.
I really do not know whether you are talking about Chelsea's or Pool's title chances while quoting me for the first time.
I don't mind Conte, but that would be some sight.Haha still trying hard to create a meaningful rivalry for Chelsea, somehow I think you're wasting your time as Liverpool Utd is pretty tasty.
Best you go back to thinking about Fulham & QPR.
Don't forget the mighty Bees of Brentford this weekend !
I still want Chelsea to win the league ahead of the vermin though...
Secondary for Brentford though, their main rivalry is firmly with Fulham, obviously sails under the radar but those two really don't like each other.
Liverpool are out of the race regardless. Really, barring a complete meltdown, the only team who might still give chelsea a fight is arsenal, but they will get spanked at the bridge and that will be the end
The Spurs-Chelsea game was a little up in the air as to who the Caf most wanted to drop points, this time I imagine it will be more clear cut: get Liverpool stuffed and improve our chances of moving up an honest to goodness place in the fecking table.
It'll be great if we can get a result and get the season back on track. We're a bit too near 5th for my liking currently.
Sorry, are you still struggling with the idea that not even your local rivals care about your irrelevant little club any more? Bless.
It's good that you can't say the same about LiverpoolWhen we slip, we get back up and win the Champions League a few seasons later.
Chelsea 2-1 hopefully but I think a draw is very likely
Liverpool are a much worse side without Mane. I don't think they've played well for about a month now, expecting Chelsea to pick them off on the counter
Liverpool 0-2 Chelsea
Hazard, Costa.
Hazard, Costa.
Liverpool are the ultimate game raisers. There is no way they're losing this. At home, too.
Firmino to buzz around like a young Messi in the 'false 9' role, Henderson channelling the spirits of a prime Pirlo and Gattuso combined, Lallana Cruyff-turning himself on and Matip to play like Nesta and Maldini's love child... on steroids.
1-0 Milner pen.

Another January loss for Pool.
So not really game of the season for Chelsea...
Annihilate the pool please and thank you
Want to see Klopp talk about Man Utd more in the post match

Klopp is in the corner and when a psycho is in the corner.............
Wouldn't mind Costa dodging a red and snatching a goal to win it.
Jesus wept..
Have you seen their record against the top 6 this season?
I don't think we've even conceded a pen this season. Maybe 1 but I don't recall. But as long as there's no Mane, I don't see Liverpool winning tbh.
Can see Chelsea going there for a draw and getting totally outplayed.
Can't see Liverpool getting anything out of this. They really do look void of ideas, and their strikers aren't in form.
Think Chelsea will sit back and hit them on the counter like So'ton did tonight. However, I think Chelsea will be a lot more ruthless in front of goal.

The pace that Liverpool were setting at the start of the season seems to have lost steam, that all action football only can last so long. If Chelsea can see out the first half then I see them picking L'pool off.
Klopp will say after the game "we were the team trying to play football".
Liverpool will certainly raise their game, but it won't be easy for them. Just based on everything so far, going for a Chelsea win.
Liverpool always get up for the big games. It's the likes of Burnley, Bournemouth, Swansea and Southampton that cause them trouble.
Sit deep and they always struggle.
Plus they are leaky at the back.
