The famous ex-striker Peter Crouch has made a prediction for the Chelsea vs Liverpool match result. As a former Liverpool player, it’s expected that the one known as "The Robot" would predict a positive outcome for his old team.
Liverpool is currently struggling with form and confidence. Last weekend, the champions Premier League suffered an unexpected 1-2 defeat against Crystal Palace. Meanwhile, Arsenal made a comeback to beat Newcastle 2-1, narrowing the gap with Liverpool to just 2 points.
Furthermore, a few days ago, Liverpool disappointed again when visiting Galatasaray in the Champions League. Despite being rated higher and fielding a strong lineup, Liverpool lost 0-1. It’s the first time since 2020 that Liverpool failed to score in the UEFA Champions League. Now, Arne Slot’s team is under immense pressure, facing another challenge with an away match against Chelsea in the Premier League’s round 7 highlight game.
After two consecutive losses to MU and Brighton, Chelsea regained joy by defeating Jose Mourinho’s former team Benfica in the Champions League. Speaking about the upcoming big match, former player Peter Crouch predicts the Chelsea vs Liverpool result. He believes the Reds will secure 3 points at Stamford Bridge.
Crouch’s view on the match is as follows: "With Arsenal beating Newcastle and closing the gap to Liverpool to just 2 points, I want to see a response from Arne Slot’s team. Now is not the time to dwell on the past; Liverpool must use it as motivation to move forward. Chelsea is a tough opponent, but I think Liverpool will get a good result in this game. I expect both teams to score, and I predict Liverpool will win 3-1.”
According to English media, Chelsea is expected to miss 8 players in the match against Liverpool. These include Cole Palmer, Liam Delap, Levi Colwill, Tosin Adarabioyo, Wesley Fofana, Andrey Santos, and Dario Essugo. Trevoh Chalobah will also be absent due to suspension. This is a good opportunity for Liverpool to end their 7-match winless streak at Chelsea’s home in all competitions. Of course, whether Liverpool can win remains to be seen.
